About this clipart
The caduceus features a winged staff entwined by two serpents, originating from ancient Greek mythology as the herald’s staff of Hermes. Though frequently used to represent medicine-especially in the United States-it is technically distinct from the Rod of Asclepius, which has a single serpent and no wings. Its adoption in medical contexts stems largely from historical confusion and U.S. military usage in the 19th century.
This image is commonly used on healthcare websites, medical school pages, hospital branding, and educational content about medical symbolism. It serves users seeking visual identification of medical symbols, historical clarification, or iconography for design purposes.
