Heinrich Curschmann (June 28, 1846 – May 6, 1910) was a German internist who was a native of Giessen. Prior to 1888, Curschmann worked in hospitals in Berlin and Hamburg. Afterwards he was a lecturer and professor at the University of Leipzig. Curschmann is remembered for the 1894 production of ''Klinische Abbildungen'' (Clinical Illustrations), a collection of photos involving changes to the outer human form caused by internal disease. ''Klinische Abbildungen'' is considered to be a major pioneer work in medical photography. Curschmann's name is lent to a number of eponymous medical terms, including "Curschmann's disease", also known as hyaloserositis of the liver; "Curschmann's trocar", a medical instrument; and "Curschmann's spirals", described as coiled mucinous fibrils sometimes found in the sputum in bronchial asthma. ==References== * ''This article is based on a translation of an article from the German Wikipedia.'' * (Translation of "Klinische Abbildungen." ) 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「Heinrich Curschmann」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
