Physician performing #uroscopy from the manuscript Theoria Medicinae Naturalis dating from c.1630. It's attributed to Conrad Goltzing. But who was Goltzing? We know very little about the book, its author or how it came to be in our collection 🤔

Same operation, different view!
Love these two photos of William Macewen and James Hogarth Pringle operating on a patient in Glasgow (c.1890). Note the white coats and rubber gloves, which were part of Macewen's movement away from antisepsis towards asepsis

Even though it might be easy to focus on Hill Hassall's mistakes regarding the cause of cholera, we choose to celebrate his essential contribution to the field of histology, as well as public health, which would not have been possible without the microscope.
