EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable plate from "The Canon of Medicine" by the renowned Persian physician and philosopher, Avicenna. Born in Bukhara and later passing away in northwest Iran in 1037, Avicenna left an indelible mark on medical history with his extensive contributions. His medical works were highly esteemed, and this excerpt specifically illustrates his ingenious treatment for spinal fracture-dislocation. In this image, we witness three distinct stages of Avicenna's groundbreaking therapy. At the top, pressure is deftly applied using leverage on a sturdy board to realign the fractured spine. In the middle section, we observe another method where forceful pounding with a heavy instrument aids in correcting the dislocation. Finally, at the bottom of the plate, we see a patient undergoing traction while experiencing local manipulation to further enhance their recovery process. This historical photograph not only provides us with valuable insights into ancient medical practices but also highlights Avicenna's pioneering approach to back therapy during the 11th century. It serves as a testament to his profound understanding of human anatomy and dedication to advancing healthcare. Science Photo Library has preserved this significant piece of medical history through their meticulous reproduction of this image print. Its presence reminds us of how far medicine has come while honoring one of its greatest pioneers – Abu-Ali Al-Hussein Ibn Abdullah Ibn Sina or better known as Avicenna.
