FROM IMHOTEP TO IRAQ:
MEDICAL ADVANCES THROUGH WAR
Ronald E. Rosenthal
From the time of the earliest known physicians in ancient Egypt up until the present, many medical advances have come through military experiences. These include epidemiology, sanitation, gastric physiology, amputations, prosthetics, transfusions, burn treatments, and neuro-psychiatric diseases. Ron will cover this history and how these advances have been integrated into civilian care, projecting what is coming in the future.
Ron is a retired orthopedic surgeon. He served as an Army surgeon in Viet Nam and has held faculty appointments at Washington University, Vanderbilt University, and Albert Einstein College of Medicine.
