Trying to explain just how an incident occurred with words is a difficult task to be sure.  Most people when faced with such a task end up participating in an impromptu game of charades as they use hand gestures and body English in an attempt to better explain the events. Additionally if available, a sketch on a cocktail napkin may come in to play as well. The point is that the majority of people are by nature visual learners.  Case in point, the tools described above are used by people all of the time to better make a point or further detail the explanation of an event.

So, it may be one thing to say, “his leg was broken when it was caught between the bumper of a car and a pipe in a wall.” It's another to show it in graphic detail so that the true scope of the incident can be appreciated. Mechanism of Injury exhibits do just that, they put the viewer at the scene of the incident clearly demonstrating what happened, how it happened and what the injuries are/were. Mechanism of Injury exhibits are available as static board images/exhibits as well as animated recreations.
