  • Title: [Rokitansky and the Vienna Medical School--from the philosophy of nature to natural science].
    Author: Sedivy R.
    Journal: Wien Med Wochenschr; 2004 Oct; 154(19-20):443-53. PubMed ID: 15560466.
    Abstract:
    On February 19th 2004 we celebrated the 200th anniversary of Carl Rokitansky's birth. Together with Morgagni and Virchow, Rokitansky paved the way for the development of modern pathology. In addition, he was the co-founder of the so-called Second Vienna Medical School. Rokitansky represents a personality on the threshold of the change in medicine from a phenomenological-dominated philosophy to an evidence-based science. This jubilee essay aims at outlining this development particularly with regard to the Vienna Medical School before and after Rokitansky.
