Roman Medical History: History of Neurosurgery

Ғылым және технология

Roman medical history was an absolutely fundamental period in improving our understanding of how the body works. In this History of Neurosurgery video we cover both Roman history and Greek history and how it was so important in the development of neurosurgery today. We cover great figures including Galen, Hippocrates and Erasistratus and their contributions to our understanding of the brain and the eventual development of neurosurgery.

    Can I have one question please . I have a flat bone head . I mean my head is flat . No body in my family or even my family tree has a flat head like me . I look more like my dad but even the 5 generations cousins of my dad don't have a flat head . When I was small they put my head on concrete. And I think this is why my bone is flat . Question: does it has any way or type of operation who can curve the back bone of my head . I mean to change the bone shape not to put implant under skin . Real bone change shape I am 33 years old .

    Valiant effort on the good doctor’s part, but the volume of misinformation in this video is staggering: accuracy is not just for the operating theatre and the consulting room.

    it's weird how Galen on his own accelerated medical research exponentially, but his failure to instruct others how he came to those conclusions or how others could replicate his experiments in order grow the body of knowledge retarded medical science development for 1500 years. we must be willing to pass on our work methodology if it is to humanity's benefit. the author, like the body, must perish. only pertinent information matters. in other words, teach people how to figure stuff out, there will always be more stuff to figure out. let them have fun with it like you did, don't be like Galen.
