    The Anatomage Table

    The Anatomage Table is a new resource for students to learn about the human body in a life-like way. This high-tech equipment replicates the diagnostic approach in a healthcare setting using interactive visuals of anatomy and physiology. It brings what students are learning in textbooks to life without having to use human cadavers which can be expensive and hard to acquire. The Anatomage Table is the latest and greatest technology in health education and Nicolet is proud to provide this opportunity to our students.
