Rasmus – The Medical Enigma
October 9, 2012 § 4 Comments
Rasmus has been in and out of the hospital for as long as I can remember. He’s kind of large for a rodent, he doesn’t say much, but he’s a likable fellow. For the last three years I have photographed him in all around the hospital, but the doctors don’t seem to find out what’s wrong with him. He’s had blood tests, bone scintigraphy and a PET-scan. He’s had a cardiac catheterization and high-dose chemotherapy. A few months ago he even underwent craniofacial surgery. What’s even worse is he’ll probably have to go through a bunch of other procedures in the years to come, and no one will get any wiser.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Rasmus (“mus” means mouse in Norwegian) is Oslo University Hospital’s mascot for children, and the star of numerous info leaflets, I’d be really worried.

Medical Illustrations
August 17, 2012 § 1 Comment
The last year I’ve ventured into the domain of medical illustration. I’ve used Adobe Illustrator for different purposes for many years, but when I was asked to illustrate a case report on the repair of a chronic posterior sternoclavicular dislocation, I jumped on the opportunity to get to know the tools better.
I am a trained photographer, and by no means an accomplished medical illustrator, but I’ve been able to expand upon the client’s ideas and provide them with functional schematic illustrations. In pre-digital times our department had several illustrators on the staff, but that was over fifteen years ago. I’m glad we can provide some level of service in this field again. There’s certainly no less demand for it.
