Anatomage Table

This operating-bed sized table provides highly accurate, 3D visualizations of human and animal anatomy.

Use the Anatomage Table on the main floor of the Taubman Health Sciences Library to virtually examine the human body through advanced medical imaging of cadavers. Check out Anatomage's YouTube channel to see what’s possible.

The table’s interactive touchscreen interface allows for an immersive, hands-on approach to the study of anatomy and physiology, an innovation that has led to its adoption by many of the world’s leading medical schools and institutions.

With the table, you can:

  • Virtually dissect full-scale images of actual human and animal cadavers
  • Remove layers to reveal bones, muscles, nerves, veins, and arteries
  • Make incisions with digital tools and examine the cut from any angle
  • Explore thousands of real medical cases
  • Tap on a blood vessel to see annotated blood flow animation
  • Select specific joints to view and interact with motions of the hip, knee, and shoulder
  • Explore a virtual pregnancy, catheterization, nerve pathways, heart motion, eye movements, and 3D models of real cadaver prosections
  • Support your work with interactive quizzes and color coded self-study tools

Make a table reservation

  • If you are a U-M health sciences student, faculty, or staff member, you may reserve the table any time the library is open.
  • Other patrons are welcome to use the table during the library’s public hours unless it's reserved by a member of the U-M community.
