The awards comprise of Gold, Silver and Bronze as well as a Platinum award, chosen from the Gold award winners. Additional awards include the Wellcome Award for the entry selected as most suitable for inclusion in the Wellcome Medical Library, and the Peter Kilshaw Student Award for the best entry from a student on a recognised course. Awards are presented to those entrants who, in the opinion of the judges, demonstrate the best use of their skills as medical illustrators, the application of design, the effective communication of information and their visual effectiveness. This selection of entries consists of winners of Bronze and Silver awards from 2017 to 2019 and demonstrate the vast practice and scope of the profession, as well as the dedication and skill of IMI members.","PeriodicalId":43868,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Visual Communication in Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39375842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data analysis was based on 258 completed surveys received from 308 (83.77%) respondents. Each parent completed a survey that included the Brief-COPE-Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced questionnaire that encompassed 14 subscales of positive and negative coping mechanisms. Parents used both positive and negative coping mechanisms in outpatient clinics and hospitalisation units. Scores involving negative coping mechanisms were increased and associated with the severity of a child's reason for visiting a children's hospital. The lowest scores were reported by parents whose children were seen at outpatient clinics, whereas the highest scores were reported by parents whose children were treated in critical care units.

The research was descriptive and qualitative, and informants were selected by purposive sampling. The six research informants were teachers and students from a junior high school and a senior high school. Data were collected by using in-depth virtual interviews, and data were analysed using thematic analysis. According to our findings, both teachers and students found the information, images and words of the poster interesting, while the language and terms used were easily understood. In addition, the information was useful and appropriate to the situation and needs. However, titles should be more attractive and specific.

Although its illustrations are of an indisputably high quality, its unethical origins yield questions with its use. This study aimed to identify successful methods for creating equal if not higher quality anatomical visualisations through an analysis and comparison of past and present medical illustrator's techniques. Pernkopf's illustrations were not used as an anatomical reference to ensure the new visuals were ethical; instead other existing visuals and written sources were compiled and reviewed to create an original 3D model of the posterior cervical triangle using ZBrush 2020. Some visualisation techniques used by Pernkopf were used as a part of this project (i.e. rendering in partial colour) this technique is not unique to Pernkopf and was also used by Henry Carter, the illustrator of Grey's anatomy. The survey was distributed to 78 participants with a strong anatomical or medical/biological art background. The reception to the new resource was positive; participants favoured it in terms of quality and ease of understanding. However, participants noted that the images in the survey were not the same resolution which may have skewed the results in favour of the new image.
