The medal table is based on information provided by the [[International Olympic Committee]] (IOC) and is consistent with IOC convention in its published medal tables. The table uses the [[Olympic medal table]] sorting method. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation have won, where a nation is an entity represented by a [[National Olympic Committee]] (NOC). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next, and then the number of bronze medals.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Ostlere |first1=Lawrence |date=11 August 2024 |title=Olympic medal table: USA beat China to top spot at Paris 2024 |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2580716.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240812015233/https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/olympics/olympics-2024-medal-table-count-paris-b2594580.html |archive-date=12 August 2024 |access-date=12 August 2024 |work=[[The Independent]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Araton |first1=Harvey |date=18 August 2008 |title=A Medal Count That Adds Up To Little |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230321004238/https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/19/sports/olympics/19araton.html |archive-date=21 March 2023 |access-date=25 July 2024 |work=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> If teams are still tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their [[List of IOC country codes|IOC country code]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Cons |first1=Roddy |date=10 August 2024 |title=What happens if two countries are tied in the Olympic medal table?

==Changes in medal standings==
On October 26, 2020, it was announced that biathlete [[Evgeny Ustyugov]] of Russia was charged by the Biathlon Integrity Unit for haemoglobin doping and could lose his 2010 gold medal. The decision was confirmed in 2024, with Ustyugov's appeal rejected in 2025.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1100019/ustyugov-biathlon-ibu-doping-cas-ruling|title=CAS Anti-Doping Division rules in favour of IBU in Ustyugov passport case}}</ref> As a result, Russia's medal total decreased from three gold and 15 medals overall to two and 14, respectively.
