Dr. Brent Graham, Editor-in-Chief of The Journal of Hand Surgery, began creating visual abstracts for select JHS articles in June of 2018. These graphical abstracts, which are a single image, are an emerging trend in the medical community. They act as a novel dissemination strategy that visually summarizes the key points of a given article.
Dr. Graham creates 2-3 visual abstracts per month; all will be featured here, but please check the JHS Twitter for them as well!
