Medical Illustration as a Tool for Health Literacy
TRACE: Tennessee Research and Creative Exchange, 2021Co-Authors: Wombles, Courtney AnneAbstract:Health literacy is most commonly described as the ability of an individual to obtain, comprehend, and utilize information related to their health. Including the ability to read, write, speak, and display numeracy in Medical situations, rates of health literacy impact the ability of an individual to navigate the healthcare system and make informed decisions. As reported by the National Assessment of Adult Literacy, only 12% of individuals have the proficiency to understand and manage their health. This research identifies problems existing in health literacy and doctor-patient communication, with an emphasis on consumer health information. It explores resources used for science and Medical education, both for the patient and the health care professional. One of these resources, Medical Illustration, is analyzed to determine the role it plays in explaining bioMedical concepts and research. A creative project has been created to encompass the research. The end result of this project is a series of bioMedical visualization-based materials for consumer health education. Each project utilizes a different medium and focuses on one of the United States’ most prevalent chronic diseases: diabetes, kidney disease, cancer, and heart disease. All products accompanying this research are created with readability, accuracy, organization, and accessibility in mind, and they demonstrate visual communication of scientific concepts and processes

Visualizing Reproduction: a Cultural History of Early-Modern and Modern Medical Illustrations
Journal of Medical Humanities, 2010Co-Authors: Karen HarveyAbstract:Written as a response to a conference exhibition of Medical Illustrations of reproduction, this article considers the gains of an interdisciplinary study of Medical Illustration to both historians and medics. The article insists that we should not only be attuned to the cultural work that such representations perform but also that such Illustrations are the product of material Medical practices and the often humane impulses that drive them.

Medical Illustration: Discovering and Comprehending Scientific Concepts Through Art
Union | Digital Works, 2021Co-Authors: Gootman AlexandraAbstract:Background. Scientific Illustrations and diagrams have been used for thousands of years to portray and relay information. As the different fields of science, technology, engineering and math progressed, diagrams evolved along with the scientific concepts they illustrated. Yet, there is no set standard for creating a scientific diagram or Illustration. The field is continually evolving and growing, utilizing multiple dimensions including digital interfaces and virtual reality. Aims. To analyze the research on the use and effectiveness of different multimedia platforms for learning and to examine the effectiveness of learning outcomes using two dimensional vs three dimensional models. A specific focus was placed on level of detail and the role of color in Medical diagrams. Another aim of this project was to develop novel Medical Illustrations and scientific diagrams based on these findings. Method. A literature search from January 1965 to January 2021 was conducted using the key words, scientific diagram, Medical Illustration, details, engagement, color, dimensions, models, learning, neuroscience, memory, among others. Databases and books from Union College\u27s Schaffer library were utilized. Findings. There was some evidence that the different components that make up scientific diagrams may influence learning outcomes. For example, some colors (i.e. warm) may facilitate learning. The value in the level of detail included in a diagram seems dependent on multiple factors such as subject material, intended audience etc., . It has been suggested that certain artistic styles of Illustrations better facilitate learning over others (i.e. cartoons better facilitate learning of Medical information over anatomical and CT scan imaging), but the research conducted in the field was limited by inconsistent methodologies across studies. Conclusions. Scientific Illustration has real world implications given its use in educating the Medical professionals and leaders in STEM fields of tomorrow, yet research on the effectiveness of learning aids is limited. Further research is needed to identify how different sensory information might enhance learning, especially as more digital interface platforms, learning aids, and virtual reality techniques are being developed
