Vehicle Accident T-bone Collision
This demonstrative highlights the injuries suffered by a woman in this devastating T-bone incident ( Vehicle Accident )
A contusion occurs when capillaries burst and leak blood in the local vicinity. When the scalp is bruised so severely, rapid blood loss is inevitable, leading to serious side-effects.
While the clavicle is the most commonly broken bone, that doesn’t make it any less serious. It’s an incredibly painful event, and can take up to an entire year to heal completely.
The distal radius fracture will require surgery to realign and correct. Severe pain will accompany any movement for weeks following an injury of this nature.
A pelvic fracture paired with a sacral fracture is a recipe for constant discomfort. In addition to experiencing pain while moving the lower body even slightly, injuries to the surrounding organs may also occur as a consequence of the damaged pelvic area.
If the two supporting bones in the calf area are both fractured, walking will be nearly impossible. The fibula and tibia are critical for getting around, and when they break, enormous pain is sure to follow.
A pericardial effusion is a serious matter. It’s marked by the buildup of fluid in the space around the heart. If the buildup happens quickly enough, it can cause cardiac tamponade, which can be life-threatening.
Hematomas can be very serious. When blood begins to clot, a hematoma can form and result in serious swelling and pain. These can last up to several months, and be tender to touch, resulting in extended discomfort.

Most of modern society receives their information via visual and written media, if not exclusively visual. For some people, this extends to learning to the extent that the only way the person can learn is if they’re able to see it with their eyes. This presents a problem for the way most trials transpire. At least a few members of the jury are likely to consider themselves visual learners and will struggle to keep up with the vast amounts of complex information that’s being presented.
The best solution to this problem is to include a visual aid. Allan Barsky said in his book, Clinicians in Court:
“As noted throughout this volume, the purpose of providing evidence at a trial is to educate the judge or jury about the facts in a case. As the saying goes, “Seeing is believing,” so using visual aids in courtroom presentations can have a critical impact on the decision makers. Seeing a torn piece of clothes may be more convincing than just hearing about it.”

Medical Animation
Our cutting-edge animation technology paired with some of the most talented medical experts in the country has allowed us to become industry leaders in creating medical illustrations. We have a team of certified medical illustrators, medical practitioners, and 3D modeling engineers that can recreate any kind of surgery or injury in astonishing detail.
We’ve worked with some of the top attorneys and expert witnesses in the country, and have produced animations so precise, that they have been admitted as substantive evidence, not just demonstrative. A neutral expert witness in a particularly challenging case testified that our animation was exactly what he saw when he performed surgery on the plaintiff after the defendant misdiagnosed the plaintiff.
Medical Imaging Modeled in 3D with Perfection
“Over 2 decades I have used several animation firms nationwide to prepare medical animations based upon diagnostic imaging, e.g., x-rays, CT’s, and MRI’s. The work product was always acceptable, but never up to state-of-the-art standards for cutting-edge animation – until now.
I reached out to Fox-AE after receiving an email from their Marketing Director. The email included a link to an exemplar animation. After viewing the animation, I knew that I wanted to give Fox-AE a chance. I arranged to have the Fox-AE animation engineer fly in to meet our neuroradiology expert and review the MRI together. From there, the engineer worked with the expert to ensure that the animation was an exact match with the MRI. The result was stunning in every respect. The precision with which the animator accurately captured the MRI was without peer. Every person who has seen the animation is struck by its detail and flow. First-rate in every respect. Use Fox-AE whenever possible – your client and the jury will thank you. Opposing counsel will not.”
