Welcome!

The term “Medical Illustrator” should be understood to include artists who are qualified by advanced academic education and have experience in medicine, science, art, design, visual technology, media techniques, and in theories related to communication, learning and management.  - Association of Medical Illustrators

To me it's not just when you look at an anatomy textbook or video that describes the body in an educational sense. Medical Illustration is appreciating the things you can't see and beautifully describing them without a single word through a multitude of media: drawings, paintings, diagrams, photos, videos, animations, 3D models and Virtual Reality.
