| The paper presents a chronological outline of epochs covering about 5,000 years of human history, focusing on selected important developments in pathological anatomy and the figures with whom they were associated. It is not a complete list of authors and facts, in either human or veterinary medicine, owing to the limited size of the paper and the author’s subjective judgments.. The paper also presents a vision of pathological anatomy in the future, in the form of the so-called virtual section, based on digital photography and computer tomography. |
