Update in biomedical visualization: the professional communicator's role.

Health science communications professionals span a broad range of disciplines, each bringing a distinctly different focus and set of cognitive skills to bear upon information technologies. Nowhere is this more apparent than in biocommunications service units and academic programs. Until now, most faculty from visually-based disciplines were rarely required to generate research or project contracts. This is changing; new demands are being made for allied health faculty to obtain research grants and for academic health science centers to forge ventures with the private sector. Visualization in scientific computing offers new avenues for these activities.

Computergraphics: a scientific tool and an aid to the medical illustrator.

This article discusses some of the many ways that computergraphics technology is used in the medical and scientific communities to accurately quantify, record, and image natural structures and phenomena. What becomes obvious from the information presented is that computer-generated graphics have become routine for the constituency that the biocommunicator serves. To ignore the significance of these developments would be to put one's head in the sand.
