medical illustration of Dermik Sculptra is an injectable Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLA). It is used for restoring volume and improving facial contours. Injected PLA stimulates the formation of new collagen in the skin.
medical illustration of Pancreatitis is inflammation in the pancreas. It occurs when digestive enzymes inside the pancreas irritate pancreatic cells. If not treated, prolonged pancreatitis can lead to scarring of pancreatic tissue and loss of function.
medical illustration of Surgicept is waterless surgical handscrub and healthcare personnel handwash solution. Active ingredients include ethyl alcohol, benzalchonium choride (BZK), chlorhexidrine gluconate (CHG), and an emollient, Sensiva. These compounds were assembled in 3D for this collateral piece.
medical illustration of Colorized pencil drawing of the sinuses, originally used to launch an oral drug to treat bacterial infections.
medical illustration of Renin inhibitors are a group of drugs used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). By binding to renin, its' subsequent binding to angiotensinogen is inhibited. The result is the interruption of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system, the body's natural mechanism to raise blood pressure.
medical illustration of Editorial image of inflated balloon catheter in descending aorta, viewed from the left side.
medical illustration of 3D model of the spine is imaged and blended with photography of female figure from behind.
medical illustration of 3D illustration from animation, demonstrating left ventricular cardiomyopathy and subsequent systemic output challenges on the heart. This 3D scene was designed to animate cardiac output, vascular resistance, and changes in blood flow volume for professional training videos. Schematic representations of pulmonary and systemic circulation animate to tell peripheral vascular stories.
medical illustration of Biological warfare, also known as germ warfare—is the use of biological toxins or infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi with the intent to kill or incapacitate humans. This illustration was developed as a journal cover to highlight discussion in the featured article.
medical illustration of Angiogenesis is the growth of new blood vessels from existing vasculature. In cancer, angiogenesis is a response to cellular signals sent from cancer cells.
medical illustration of In posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) procedures, surgeons have the option to access pedicle screw insertion sites by dissecting down the intermuscular plane between the multifidus medially and the longissimus laterally. Placing screws and fusion rods in this plane spares the neurovascular bundle to the multifidus muscle and reduces postoperative bone loss.
medical illustration of Orthopedic surgery samples.
medical illustration of Posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) first provides stability to the front of the spine by inserting devices to replace a degenerated intervertebral disc. This image demonstrates the insertion of one of two expandable intervertebral devices through a midline surgical approach.
medical illustration of This colorized pencil drawing represents a variation of the common vaginal hysterectomy. In this procedure, the cervix must be split to facilitate removal of the uterus.
medical illustration of Bone remodeling is the process which maintains health and metabolism of bone. Bone metabolism is maintained by a balance between ossification, the deposit of new bone tissue by osteocytes and bone resorption, the breakdown of old bone by osteoclasts.
medical illustration of In the cycle of events leading to intestinal wall breakdown and inflammation common to IBS and Crohn's disease, TNF alpha is a key player. As a pro-inflammatory cytokine, it recruits additional inflammatory cells to local tissue. This illustration was created for a medical journal cover and includes and inflamed a thickened ileocecal junction in the background as well as antibody binding TNF alpha in the foreground.
medical illustration of Diastolic dysfunction is a condition in which the left atrium is not able to completely pump blood into the left ventricle. Often this is due to enlarged and/or stiff ventricular walls. This image combines a diagnostic echocardiogram, showing a thickened left ventricle wall with an orientation to the heart.
medical illustration of In the treatment of IBS, IBSD, and Crohn's disease, serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin (SBI) has been used to bind antigen in the intestines to prevent penetration through the gut barrier (intestinal wall). The goal of treatment is to break the cycle of penetration, inflammation, and epithelial cell death to allow the gut wall epithelium to heal itself.
medical illustration of The intestinal tight junction is an important structure in the maintenance of digestive system homeostasis and protection against IBS, IBSD, and Crohn's disease. Intracellular components of the tight junction connect to the epithelial cell's cytoskeleton, while loops of claudin and occludin proteins connect to other tight junctions and control the intercellular space.
medical illustration of Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) are very commonly used. Yet there are risks associated with their use, such as high blood pressure (hypertension) and gastrointestinal ulcers.
medical illustration of Colorized pencil drawing of uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries, showing one large and one small ovarian cyst.
medical illustration of It's vital to establish an open airway in an unconscious patient. Emergency medical responders may choose to use an oropharyngeal airway (OPA). It's important to measure anatomical landmarks to determine the appropriate size to use.
medical illustration of Ischemia occurs when arteries to tissues are narrowed or blocked, and oxygen and nutrients cannot reach the tissue. A stroke occurs in the brain, as in a heart attack, when tissue starved from oxygen and nutrients starts to die.
medical illustration of Arrows represent specific chemotherapy treatments to combat breast, colon, and lung cancers.
medical illustration of Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder in which patients who ingest gluten suffer damage to the lining of the small intestine. This illustration demonstrates the loss of the absorptive surface of the microvilli.
medical illustration of Hip and spine fractures are often called fragility fractures because of structural degeneration of the bone due to osteoporosis. This illustration presents the most common hip fractures associated with osteoporosis for a journal cover and featured discussion.
medical illustration of Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing, or periods of shallow breathing during sleep. This illustration depicts obstructive sleep apnea in which the patient is asleep on his/her back and the airway is blocked by the back of the tongue.
