BioDigital Human is an interactive 3D platform that visualizes the human body, its anatomy, diseases, and medical treatments in detail. It’s often called a “Google Earth for the human body.”
You can explore:
- The skeleton, muscles, organs, vessels, and nerves.
- 3D animations of how diseases or treatments affect the body.
- Interactive simulations of physiological functions.
It’s primarily used by:
- Medical students for anatomy and physiology learning.
- Doctors and educators to explain conditions to patients.
- Health-tech and pharma companies for interactive presentations and training.
🧠 How It Works
You log in to human.biodigital.com and access a 3D model of the body. You can:
- Rotate, zoom, and dissect layers (skin, muscles, nerves, etc.).
- Turn on/off anatomical systems.
- View labeled structures and short educational descriptions.
- Customize and save specific visualizations.
They also provide API and integration tools, so developers or educational platforms can embed BioDigital’s models directly into apps or websites.
🏢 Background
- Company: BioDigital, Inc. (a division of Anatomage since 2024).
- Headquarters: New York City, USA.
- Founded: 2011.
- Mission: To make health and medical education more accessible through 3D interactive visualization.
💡 Interesting Note
The platform uses WebGL (a browser-based 3D graphics engine) — so everything runs directly in your web browser without extra software.
Medical universities and health companies worldwide subscribe to it because it replaces traditional static anatomy atlases with dynamic, updatable, and interactive visuals.
