medical illustration of These medical legal boards feature a wrist arthroscopy surgery and colored interpretations of the wrist injuries for use in a personal injury case.
medical illustration of This medical legal board shows the progression of cervical disc herniations and a disc bulge over the course of 4 years.
medical illustration of This illustration is a colored interpretation of a disc herniation and osteophytes in a female patient's neck. The layout includes an orientation image to give viewers familiarity with the level of the scan.
medical illustration of This colorized film interpretation shows calcium deposits within the patellar ligament. *Patient's name was replaced for privacy purposes.
medical illustration of This medical legal board displays a colorized medical film of a patient’s calcaneus, and the painful spur and calcium deposit in the Achilles tendon.
medical illustration of This medical legal board shows an MRI scan and a colored interpretation of it for jury education. An orientation image of the scan is included, too.
medical illustration of These medical legal boards feature a wrist arthroscopy surgery and colored interpretations of the wrist injuries for use in a personal injury case.
medical illustration of The surgical board has the steps involved in an ALIF procedure. The layout includes a flat-graphic orientation image to give jurors familiarity with the area being operated on.
medical illustration of This legal art board illustrates the fatal medical malpractice that occurred during surgery. The board includes an anatomy image for jury education, followed by the subsequent steps that led to the patient's fate.
medical illustration of This medical legal board features cervical discectomies at the C3/4 and C4/5 levels. Interbody devices and a cervical plate were placed and fixed to the bone once the herniated disc material was removed.
medical illustration of This image is a medical legal art board for an acetabular fracture repair. The series of illustrations introduces the injury and surgical steps to remedy the fracture. Text accompanies each image to guide the reader through the steps.
medical illustration of This illustration is a direct interpretation of a dog's medical film.
medical illustration of This image is half of a raccoon mandible that was recovered in marshes along the Georgia coast. Nerve innervation and arterial supply for the teeth can be seen entering through the mandibular foramen. A section of the body has been removed to reveal the structures in the mandibular canal. The sample is missing the incisors.
medical illustration of These images are of a bovine (cow or ox) cervical vertebra that was found in marshes along the Georgia coast. The transverse foramen and short spinous process are key anatomical identifiers for the group of cervical vertebrae. One image shows the bone by itself and the other shows the spinal cord in place; structures in both images are labeled for reference.
medical illustration of This is a sketch of a bovine (cow or ox) cervical vertebra that was found in marshes along the Georgia coast. The transverse foramen (vertebrarterial canals) and short spine are key anatomical identifiers for the group of cervical vertebrae.
medical illustration of The original sketch for this infographic was made at a ‘SciArt Meetup’ event at the Florida Museum of Natural History (color and graphical details added afterwards). The graphics on the left include a breakdown of the time period and geographical location of the ancient animal’s existence.
medical illustration of This molecular illustration shows the membrane-bound proteins involved in the uptake of a virus particle into the cell. Reading from left to right, the arrows show how the proteins pass the virus down the line until it reaches the final protein that will trigger the endocytosis.
medical illustration of This scientific illustration inset (from a larger poster) shows the anatomy of a rotavirus particle. The different capsids that surround the RNA strands are isolated and positioned within a flat, gray virus shape to show their relevant size and position within the complete virus.
medical illustration of This molecular illustration shows the components involved in the release of insulin from a pancreatic beta-cell during a period of elevated glucose-levels. The insulin molecules will go on to bind to insulin-receptors on other cells that allow glucose to enter and be used for energy.
medical illustration of This molecular illustration shows the steps involved in building the ‘membrane-attack complex’ (MAC) during an immune response against an invading bacterium. A transmembrane channel is formed when up to 16 C9 molecules are added, thus disrupting the outer membrane (the complete pore was halved for the sake of the illustration).
medical illustration of This is an image of conotoxin and an inset of how it affects a voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC). Conotoxin is a peptide toxin created by a tropical marine snail (Conus victoriae). Aside from VGCCs, the toxin also targets voltage-gated sodium channels, voltage-gated potassium channels, and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Conotoxins are being explored as an option for pain-relief therapy.
medical illustration of This image generalizes the electrochemical steps involved in memory depotentiation at the synapse between neurons. A stimulus activates NMDAR, which then permit calcium entry into the cell. As the cell depolarizes, VGCC activates and allows more calcium to flow into the cell. This intracellular calcium-oscillation mobilizes proteins that will eventually cause the cell to degrade the AMPA receptors by means of endocytosis.
medical illustration of This illustration was part of a proposal for a pharmaceutical company’s presentation. The illustration shows molecules in the extracellular space hovering over proteins that are embedded in a lipid bilayer. There are visuals underneath the proteins to symbolize the actions that occur downstream when the molecules bind to their receptors.
medical illustration of The art was originally created to demonstrate an understanding of research materials, but then accompanied an article submission in a recent publication of the
medical illustration of This collection of informative posters have been installed at the nature preserve in an effort to revamp the signage about the recovering bird species in this ecosystem. The work was done as part of Ahmed Awadallah’s thesis project. There were 24 total posters designed; all following a similar 508-compliant layout pattern.
