Myocardial Infarction - Medical Illustration, Human Anatomy Drawing
This stock medical exhibit features the normal anatomy of the heart, coronary disease, and myocardial infarction. The first graphic labels the main arteries of the heart. Enlargements of arterial walls show normal, 40-60% blockage, and 90-95% blockage due to plaque build up. The last graphic shows a large area of myocardial infarction.
"It is my experience that it's much more effective to show a jury what
happened than simply to tell a jury what happened. In this day and age where
people are used to getting information visually, through television and
other visual media, I would be at a disadvantage using only words.
I teach a Litigation Process class at the University of Baltimore Law Schooland use [Medical Legal Art's] animation in my class. Students always saythat they never really understood what happened to [to my client] until theysaw the animation.
Animations are powerful communication tools that should be used wheneverpossible to persuade juries."

"Medical Legal Art has always performed quality and efficient work. The
doctors that review the exhibits are always amazed at the precise

"Thanks, and your illustrations were effective in a $3
million dollar verdict last Friday."
Joseph M. Prodor Trial Lawyer White Rock, British Columbia
"Medical illustrations are essential evidence in personal injury litigation and MLA is simply the best I've found at producing high-quality illustrations. Your illustrators are not only first-class artists, but creative and responsive. Your turn around time is as good as it gets. My clients have won over $60 million in jury verdicts and I can't recall a case which did not include one of your exhibits. On behalf of those clients, thanks and keep up the great work!"
