title: The thyroid cartilage. Sternal notch relationship. 1948.
abstract: One of the most exacting demands made of the medical illustrator is the accurate delineation of anatomical relationships. In order to incorporate the maximum teaching quality in the illustration of a particular condition, the artist continually makes comparisons with the normal. By this method he recognizes and emphasizes important deviations, and gives to his drawing or model of the pathological specimen, the case seen in clinic, or the steps of a surgical procedure, its inherent teaching value.
