To examine the body habitus criteria related to body weight, height, proportion, and other size factors in United States body donation programs (USBDP), 127 USBDP publicly available websites listed by the University of Florida were reviewed. Since this study focuses on publicly available website information, it may not capture the characteristics of all programs. Eleven percent of the USBDP websites with public\u2010facing criteria exclusively listed numeric restrictions, while 24.4% included both descriptive and quantitative (numeric) terminology. The majority of websites with public\u2010facing criteria (90.6%) imposed a weight\u2010related restriction, with 55.1% providing descriptive (i.e., non\u2010numeric) terms. The most common body mass index (BMI) cutoff (30\u2009kg\/m\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    ) could disqualify some U.S. adults from donating, as the average BMI in the United States for adult females is 29.8 and for adult males is 29.4. Fourteen programs offered explanations of their descriptive or numeric weight\/BMI restrictions. As language evolves to better describe and reflect body habitus, keeping up to date with best practice and community preferences may help when designing donor criteria. Public\u2010facing information about body habitus criteria for donation may limit the representativeness of body habitus used in anatomical education and research. The implications of this on anatomical education and weight bias in students require more research.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ase.70129","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,5]],"date-time":"2025-11-05T03:37:03Z","timestamp":1762313823000},"page":"85-92","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Body habitus considerations in\n                    <scp>US<\/scp>\n                    anatomical body donation programs\u2014Perspectives and practices from program guidelines"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4781-789X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Soph","family":"Myers\u2010Kelley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laupus Health Sciences Library East Carolina University  Greenville North Carolina USA"},{"name":"Liaison Librarian to the Brody School of Medicine East Carolina University  Greenville North Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6203-1564","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jenna","family":"Hagerty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Education Thomas Jefferson University Sidney Kimmel Medical College  Philadelphia Pennsylvania USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0589-3106","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Heidi","family":"Reis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laupus Health Sciences Library East Carolina University  Greenville North Carolina USA"},{"name":"Liaison Librarian to the Brody School of Medicine East Carolina University  Greenville North Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0405-3789","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kerry","family":"Sewell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Health &amp; Human Performance East Carolina University  Greenville North Carolina USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4315-9014","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophie","family":"Orr","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery University of Michigan  Ann Arbor Michigan USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-1875-0290","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maureen","family":"Helgren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Frank H.
