Among many other things, he placed the study of anatomy at the center of medical education, insisted on physicians performing their own medical research through hands-on investigation, and revolutionized the use of illustration as a teaching tool. While he was long a disciple of Galen, he showed that some of Galen\u2019s writings were flawed, which caused an enormous uproar in the medical world of the 16th century.<\/p>\n<p>Originally from Brussels, Andreas Vesalius attended medical school in Louvain, Paris, and finally Padua, where he became a professor in surgery and anatomy in 1537. Medical research in the early 16th century was mainly a linguistic endeavor, as physicians and humanists sought out the best and least flawed manuscript versions of medieval and ancient medical texts. The only way to discover something unknown about the human body was to find an unexamined text by ancient Greek physicians like second-century Greek physician <a title=\"NLM's Greek Medicine website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/hmd\/greek\/greek_galen.html\">Galen<\/a> or the even older writings of <a title=\"NLM's Greek Medicine website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/hmd\/greek\/greek_rationality.html\">Hippocrates<\/a>, who lived in the fifth century B.C.E. Because so few Europeans knew how to read Galen and Hippocrates in the original Greek, translations into Latin were the primary means of disseminating this newly found information.<\/p>\n<p>Some physicians also sought out texts produced in the middle ages by anatomists like the Italian Mondino dei Luzzi (ca. 1270\u20131326) and <a title=\"NLM's Islamic Medical Manuscripts website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/hmd\/arabic\/med_islam.html\">Islamic physicians who produced numerous learned commentaries on the texts of older Greek physicians<\/a>. Believing that these medieval texts were flawed and mere commentaries on the ancient texts, Vesalius was at first a strong adherent to Galen, and he helped to carefully edit and translate some of the ancient texts for a new <a title=\"Catalog Record: LocatorPlus\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/nlmcatalog\/?term=2241053R\">Latin translation of Galen\u2019s works<\/a> in the early 1540s.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"840\" data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":1,"permalink":"https:\\\/\\\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\\\/2014\\\/04\\\/09\\\/andreas-vesalius-and-de-fabrica\\\/","likes_blog_id":"52242398"}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 840px; height: 562px;\" data-original-width=\"840\" data-original-height=\"562\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 417px; height: 562px;\" data-original-width=\"417\" data-original-height=\"562\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/2014\/04\/09\/andreas-vesalius-and-de-fabrica\/ketham_p64dissectionscene\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"413\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"558\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"3896\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ketham_p64dissectionscene.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1622\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}\" data-image-title=\"ketham_p64DissectionScene\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ketham_p64dissectionscene.jpg?fit=222%2C300&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ketham_p64dissectionscene.jpg?fit=758%2C1024&ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/ketham_p64dissectionscene.jpg?w=413&h=558&ssl=1\" width=\"413\" height=\"558\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-width=\"413\" data-original-height=\"558\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"ketham_p64DissectionScene\" alt=\"An illustration of an anatomy class, students watch a surgron open a body while a physician lectures from a podium.\" style=\"width: 413px; height: 558px;\" \/> <\/a> <div class=\"tiled-gallery-caption\" itemprop=\"caption description\"> Medical school dissection scene, from Johannes de Ketham\u2019s Fasiculo de Medicina, 1494.

While dissections took place at most medical schools (more frequently in Northern Italy than anywhere else), these were mainly exercises in demonstrating and verifying ancient and medieval texts, not exploring the body itself. The physician\/instructor would normally <a href=\"http:\/\/resource.nlm.nih.gov\/101436436\">sit on a high chair<\/a> (<em>cathedra<\/em>) or <a title=\"NLM's Historical Anatomies on the Web\" href=\"https:\/\/collections.nlm.nih.gov\/bookviewer?PID=nlm:nlmuid-8918127-bk#page\/46\/mode\/2up\">stand at a podium<\/a> with a text of Galen or Mondino, reading aloud as a barber surgeon made incisions in the body for a group of students looking on. Because of this, obvious errors made by Galen\u2014most likely because he had generally only dissected apes, dogs and sheep\u2014generally went unnoticed or were assumed to be anomalies. These dissections were rare and usually did not involve close examination of the cadaver, and Vesalius felt that they were essentially useless: for instance the abdomen was often merely cut open to display the viscera and little else.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"3894\" aria-describedby=\"caption-3894\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3894\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/2014\/04\/09\/andreas-vesalius-and-de-fabrica\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments.png?fit=829%2C605&ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"829,605\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":""}\" data-image-title=\"AndreasVesalius_Pg_235DissectionInstruments\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"<p>Dissection instruments recommended by Andreas Vesalius in his De Humani Corporis Fabrica, 1543<br \/>\nNational Library of Medicine<\/p>\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments.png?fit=300%2C219&ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments.png?fit=829%2C605&ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-3894 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/andreasvesalius_pg_235dissectioninstruments.png?resize=300%2C218\" alt=\"A woodcut illustration of large number of saws, knives, probes, scissors and other tools laid out on a table.\" width=\"300\" height=\"218\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-3894\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dissection instruments recommended by Andreas Vesalius in his <em>De Humani Corporis Fabrica<\/em>, 1543<br \/><a title=\"Catalog Record: LocatorPlus\" href=\"https:\/\/collections.nlm.nih.gov\/bookviewer?PID=nlm:nlmuid-2295005R-bk#page\/257\/mode\/1up\"><em>NLM #2295005<\/em><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When Vesalius arrived in Padua, he began performing dissections on his own and soon started to doubt some of Galen\u2019s anatomical descriptions, which Galen himself admitted were made by consulting older texts and dissecting dogs, sheep, and apes (in particular the <a title=\"NLM's Historical Anatomies on the Web\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/exhibition\/historicalanatomies\/Images\/1200_pixels\/monkey_19.jpg\">Barbary macaque<\/a>). Differences that Vesalius noticed ranged from the small, such as Galen\u2019s incorrect description of the lumbar vertebral processes, to the fact that the human liver has two lobes rather than five. A major discovery was that humans do not have at the base of their brains a structure called the <em>rete mirabilis<\/em>, or \u201cmiraculous network\u201d of blood vessels, which Galen had observed in the necks of sheep and he claimed suffused the \u201cvital fluid\u201d to the brain, an important part of his theory of human physiology.<\/p>\n<p>Vesalius felt that knowledge of anatomy was essential to the learning and practice of medicine, so he set out to create the ultimate guidebook to the human body. In <em>De Fabrica<\/em>, he systematically described every bodily structure and backed up all of his descriptions with evidence found in his own dissections of human cadavers rather than with textual evidence from Galen\u2014a revolutionary feat which changed medicine forever. He also commissioned <a title=\"NLM's Historical Anatomies on the Web\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/exhibition\/historicalanatomies\/vesalius_home.html\">detailed illustrations<\/a> like none ever published before and touted them as important teaching tools. To reinforce the use of illustrations as teaching tools, he also issued simultaneous to <em>De Fabrica<\/em> a shorter dissection manual called the <a title=\"Catalog Record: LocatorPlus\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.nlm.nih.gov\/permalink\/01NLM_INST\/1o1phhn\/alma992329893406676\"><em>Epitome<\/em><\/a>, using many of the same woodblock illustrations.<\/p>\n<p>The dogmatic medical establishment of 16th-century Europe, which slavishly adhered to Galen\u2019s texts, were appalled, and many of them spent a great deal of energy attacking the new \u201cVesalian anatomy.\u201d Among his most virulent critics was his former professor at the University of Paris, Jacques Dubois (1478\u20131555), known as \u201cSylvius,\u201d who published a screed against Vesalius in 1551 entitled, <a title=\"Catalog Record: LocatorPlus\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/nlmcatalog\/?term=2251010R\"><em>Vaesani Cuisdam Calumniarum in Hippocratis Galenique Rem Anatomicam Depulsio (A Counter-Attack on a Fool\u2019s Slanders Against Hippocrates and Galen)<\/em><\/a>. Fear of further criticisms caused Vesalius to pull back from performing other research, and he even burned several manuscripts for other books rather than publish them.<\/p>\n<p>Almost immediately, however, Vesalius\u2019s breakthroughs were acknowledged, and new approaches to medical research, education, and medical illustration began to flourish. In fact, <em>De Fabrica<\/em> was so popular that plagiarisms of the images and text began to come out almost immediately. One of the most famous examples was <a title=\"NLM's Historical Anatomies on the Web\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nlm.nih.gov\/exhibition\/historicalanatomies\/valverde_bio.html\">Juan Valverde de Amusco\u2019s<\/a> <em>Historia de la Composicion del Cuerpo Humano<\/em>, first published in Rome in 1556.<\/p>\n<p><em>The National Library of Medicine has a large collection of works by and about Andreas Vesalius and his groundbreaking approach.
