Introduction: Creating rich learning environments is one of the essentials of medical science curricula. Due to the pervasive developments in the digital space, the storytelling method has been greatly affected. New technologies have provided a multimedia platform for telling and listening to stories, so digital storytelling can be used as an effective tool in education. Materials & Methods: This is a first-of-its-kind review study that has investigated the specific features of digital storytelling in the field of medical sciences education in a descriptive manner, using conceptual and inferential analysis at the theoretical level. After determining the entry and exit criteria and using appropriate keywords in different databases, 36 articles were collected and analyzed. Results: Based on the analysis of the reviewed articles, the findings show that there are eleven main and common indicators in digital storytelling, which include increasing the active participation of students in the learning process, changes in the levels of knowledge and understanding, impact on clinical skills, and impact on critical thinking, improving team cooperation, improving communication skills, influencing the number and amount of errors, improving interaction with technology, evaluating the impact on motivation and interest, measuring the transferability of learning at the bedside, and influencing professional behaviors. These indicators are consistent with the characteristics of the learning environment in the field of medical sciences. These studies show that digital storytelling with these features in various fields of medical sciences including general medicine, nursing, rehabilitation sciences and social health, psychology, dentistry, pharmacy and public health can be the source of change and wide effects. Conclusion: The results of the research indicated that teaching and learning through digital storytelling happen better due to the story-like presentation of course subjects and also creating interaction between learners. Also, this method creates satisfaction in students by increasing motivation and self-confidence and simply expressing course topics,therefore, the use of digital storytelling is recommended not only as an educational tool but also as a new teaching method to increase student learning and satisfaction.
