[The nomenclatures of anatomists. A historical review (author's transl)].

In this study the history of anatomical nomenclatures is described, the Basle Nomina Anatomica (BNA), Jena Nomina Anatomica (JNA), Paris Nomina Anatomica (PNA), the Nomina Histologica and Nomina Embryologica. The Anatomische Gesellschaft inaugurated the BNA and the JNA in cooperation with foreign anatomists. The Nomina Anatomica, Nomina Histologica and Nomina Embryologica are international nomenclatures, elaborated by I.A.N.C. and subcommittees. Problems of these nomenclatures are discussed.

William Cheselden (1688-1752): humane anatomist and master surgeon.

William Cheselden (1688-1752) as a young man had a considerable reputation as an anatomist. He was one of the first to give a regular series of lecture/demonstrations and he incorporated this material into a basic text The Anatomy of the Humane Body, which was extremely popular and was in print for 100 years. He was even better known as a surgeon, being on the staff of three teaching hospitals and recognized as the most skillful lithotomist of his time. His achievements are on record and he must be regarded as one of the greatest of British surgeons. Perhaps his greatest impact was his strong advocacy for the separation of surgeons from the Barber-Surgeons Company. He realised how much this long-established relationship was delaying the advancement of surgeons and surgery, and his vigorous action resulted in an Act of Parliament that severed the old ties and established in 1745 the Corporation of Surgeons, forerunner of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

The potential of the digital anatomist foundational model for assuring consistency in UMLS sources.

Inconsistent anatomical concept representation can be identified in anatomy textbooks and hard copy term lists, as well as in UMLS source vocabularies and other controlled medical terminologies. In this report we select some examples of inconsistent representations of anatomical concepts, and illustrate how these inconsistencies can be explained and reconciled by the Digital Anatomist Foundational Model. We use this process for gaining a measure of the validity of the logic-based Model.
