Visualization of Concepts in Medicine iconic language. This figure shows how visualization of concepts in medicine (VCM) icons were built by summing up primitives. It is not necessary for an icon to have all the components filled (childhood pathology is built by a color, a shape, and a central pictogram only). There are only five sides for the seven components because the shadow component was not represented and color was used for the shape and the top right pictogram.
