Spelling bee requires medical knowledge

The National Spelling Bee competition is one of the most watched competitions in US.
The preparation. The suspense. The drama.
The intense dorkiness of it all. This contest is a nailbiter.
The contestants can memorise words like no others.
But their knowledge of medical terms dictate their fate in the competition.
Some words used :
"Muscle."
"Physician."
"Defendant."
"Poliomyelitis"
"Hirudiniasis"
"Coryza"
"Serrafine" - "...a small spring forceps used for approximating the edges of a wound, or for temporarily closing an artery during surgery."
