Street Anatomy talks about this subset of medical illustrators:
With the increase in the number of malpractice and personal injury suits it’s becoming increasingly important to provide adequate visual representation in order to effectively convey medical information to a jury. Can you imagine taking complex medical/clinical information and interpreting it so that a jury with an average high school science education can understand? This is exactly what a medical-legal illustrator specializes in. He or she not only has a strong science background, but a good understanding of legal terms and proceedings.
