This article discusses the role of art in medicine on the background of experience with art lectures for medical students and courses and exhibitions for doctors. From the last half of the 19th century, Norwegian artists have taken an interest in medical themes. Their paintings are an important contribution to medical history in Norway; more generally, they contribute to our understanding of the development of Norwegian society. Visual art is an important element in the decoration of hospitals. The works on display in the new National Hospital buildings in Oslo show how art may successfully be used in indoor as well as outdoor areas. It is important to let artists in on the planning process prior to the building of a new hospital.
本文结合为医学生举办艺术讲座以及为医生开设课程和举办展览的经验，探讨了艺术在医学中的作用。从19世纪后半叶起，挪威艺术家就对医学主题产生了兴趣。他们的画作是挪威医学史的重要贡献；更广泛地说，它们有助于我们理解挪威社会的发展。视觉艺术是医院装饰的重要元素。奥斯陆新建国家医院大楼中展出的作品展示了艺术如何能成功地应用于室内和室外区域。在新建医院之前让艺术家参与规划过程很重要。
