Lots of criticism for the accuracy of the medieval drawing shared in this article, but accuracy isn't always the point. Even in modern medical texts, picture-perfect accuracy isn't always the priority. Think of these images more as diagrams for medical situations. They are meant to communicate an idea, not be a photograph. Think of all those parents trying to see their babies in ultrasound images. An ultrasound may be a pixel-accurate representation drawn from reality, but a hand-drawn stick figure diagram would probably better communicate what is actually going on.
