In the field of medicine, which is directly linked to life and well-being, clear and precise explanations tailored to each scenario are essential.
A significant contributor to this clarity and precision is medical illustration, which visualises medical and healthcare information.
To create these medical illustrations, one requires knowledge of human anatomy and medical science to understand what needs to be conveyed, as well as illustration skills to depict it accurately.
