Albert Wojciech Adamkiewicz (August 11, 1850 – October 31, 1921) was a Polish-Jewish pathologist born in Żerków.〔(Google Books ) My Own Private Germany: Daniel Paul Schreber's Secret History of Modernity by Eric L. Santner〕 In 1873 he earned his medical doctorate from the University of Breslau, where he was a student-assistant to physiologist Rudolf Peter Heinrich Heidenhain (1834–1897). From 1879 until 1892 he was chief of general and experimental pathology at the Jagiellonian University in Cracow. Adamkiewicz is remembered for his pathological examinations of the central nervous system. His research of the variable vascularity of the spinal cord was an important factor in regards to modern clinical vascular surgery. He is credited with describing the major anterior segmental medullary artery, which is now known as the artery of Adamkiewicz.〔 In the early 1890s Adamkiewicz published a series of articles claiming the discovery of a cancer-causing parasite he called ''Coccidium sarcolytus'', as well as the existence of an anti-cancer serum. Further testing proved the serum a failure, and Adamkiewicz was severely criticized by the medical community at Jagiellonian University. Soon afterwards he relocated to Vienna, where he practiced medicine at Rothschild Hospital.〔 He is also credited for the creation of the Adamkiewicz test, a test for detecting tryptophan. ==See also== * Pathology * List of pathologists 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Albert Wojciech Adamkiewicz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
