Cervical Spine Injuries and Radiating Pain with Surgical Placement of Spinal Cord Stimulator - Medical Illustration, Human Anatomy Drawing
This stock medical exhibit depicts cervical spine injuries with placement of a spinal cord stimulator. The first image is a sagittal view of the cervical spine showing the disc bulges at C3-4, C4-5, C5-6, and C6-7. A small inset shows of the upper body and left arm features a red flare representing pain in the cervical region with redness radiating down the left arm to represent radiculopathy. The remaining images show multiple steps of the spinal cord stimulator insertion, including the lower back incision and insertion of stimulator leads, and the insertion of the pulse generator.
"For modern audiences, it is absolutely essential to use medical
demonstrative evidence to convey the severity and extent of physical
injuries to a jury. Your company's high quality illustrations of our
client's discectomy surgery, combined with strong expert testimony, allowed
the jury to fully appreciate the significance of our client's injuries.
We are very pleased with a verdict exceeding $297,000.00, far in excess of
the $20,000.00 initially offered by the defendant. The medical demonstrative
evidence provided by Medical Legal Art was an asset we could not have
afforded to have been without."

"Whether it's demonstrating a rotator cuff tear, neck movement a few
milliseconds after rear impact, or a proposed lumbar fusion, the Doe Report
represents an instant on-line database of medical illustration for
health-care and legal professionals.
Illustrations can be purchased 'as is' or modified within hours and sent
either electronically or mounted on posterboard. An illustration is worth a
thousand words, as juries perk up and look intently to capture concepts
that are otherwise too abstract. Start with good illustrations, a clear and
direct voice, a view of the jury as 12 medical students on day one of
training, and your expert testimony becomes a pleasure, even on cross
examination. An experienced trial lawyer should also emphasize these
illustrations at the end of trial, as a means of visually reinforcing key
concepts covered.
As a treating physician, I also use these accurate illustrations to educate
my own patients about their medical conditions. The Doe Report is an
invaluable resource, and its authors at MLA have always been a pleasure to
work with."
