The winning student team, which developed a system that uses 3D imaging to help doctors diagnose and treat breast cancer, received the largest prize of any of the 26 teams, according to a press release.

The runners-up received $25,000 each, and the third-place team, which developed a system that makes it easier for high school students to track their grades, received $10,000.

The event, which is in its eighth year, is put on by the university's engineering, computing, and technology department and the Fulton School of Health Innovation.
