This study aimed to investigate the application of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology among medical students at the Islamic Azad University of Kerman to predict the acceptance and use of medical technologies. The research method was correlational. The statistical population was all medical school students, 206 of whom were selected through two-stage cluster sampling by field and responded to the questions of the unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology questionnaire used in the study by Hsu et al. (2021) and Chang et al. (2021). The data were analyzed using path analysis. The results showed that the direct effect of facilitating conditions and behavioral intention to use medical technologies on the actual usage of medical technologies is positive and significant. The direct effect of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and social influence of using medical technologies on behavioral intention to use medical technologies is positive and significant, but the direct effect of facilitating conditions on behavioral intention to use medical technologies was not significant. Mediation results showed that behavioral intention to use medical technologies has a positive and significant mediating role in the relationship between performance expectations and actual use and in the relationship between effort expectations and actual use of medical technologies, But, it does not play a significant mediating role in the relationship between social impact and actual use, and in the relationship between facilitating conditions and actual use of medical technologies. Therefore, it can be said that among medical students, performance expectations and effort expectations regarding the use of medical technologies are more important factors in the acceptance and use of medical technologies than social influence and facilitating conditions.
