Every year, thousands of students across the country participate in fast-paced, interactive competitions using the Anatomage Table, a state-of-the-art medical education platform featuring digitized real human cadavers. At their regional and state tournaments, teams of 3 to 4 students maneuvered 3D bodies to locate and identify anatomical structures, vying for a top 4 finish to qualify for the National Anatomage Tournament.
This year’s tournament brought together the very best high school teams, with over 8,000 students from more than 2,200 teams participating in 44 tournaments across the country. The result: 80 teams who were able to demonstrate their academic excellence and become eligible for a chance to become National Anatomy Champions.
At the national tournament, each team competed in a 40-question preliminary round that tested their ability to identify anatomical structures using the Anatomage Table’s lifelike digital cadavers. Scores from this round determined placement in the Top 32 bracket, where the format shifted to high-stakes, head-to-head matchups in a single-elimination style. The final eight teams emerged to compete on the main stage during the live-streamed Championship, battling through three increasingly difficult rounds of anatomy and physiology challenges in pursuit of the national title.
The winners:
1st place: Arcadia High School, No Apaches Down from Arcadia, CA
2nd place: Francis Tuttle Technology Center, Peters’ Puppies from Oklahoma City, OK
3rd place: Francis Tuttle Technology Center, The Team Formerly Known As Ketchup from Oklahoma City, OK
4th place: Boyd J Michael III Technical High School, McDreamy Teamy from Hagerstown, MD
Participation in the National Anatomage Tournament not only showcases a student’s mastery of anatomy and physiology, but also serves as a powerful testament to their academic rigor and commitment to excellence. Competing in this premier event demonstrates superior critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative skills. Their journey reflects the core mission of the Anatomage Tournament: to celebrate student achievement, encourage collaboration, and inspire a passion for medical education through advanced visualization technology and dynamic competition.
