Abstract:
|
Medical illustration serves as the visual intermediary between scientific data and the audience. The goal of the medical illustrator is to convey anatomical and scientific
information in an accurate, yet visually enticing manner. Because medical illustration is a visual art, artistic license can play a significant role in the success or failure of an illustration as a pedagogic means.
