Summary
The origin of illustrated anatomy treatises dates to the Renaissance. They became popular after Andreas Vesalius’s De humani corporis fabrica was published in 1543. It was after a quarter of the millennium that illustrated pathological treatises became a medical genre with Eduard Sandifort’s Museum anatomicum, published in 1793 [1].
