French #pathologist, #anatomist, and #physician who wrote several important works on pathological #anatomy. He was essentially a researcher and experimenter.
He was not known for his abilities as a clinician or teacher, but gained notoriety from the illustrations contained in his chief work Anatomie pathologique du corps humain (1828-1842) and the Traité d'anatomie pathologique générale (1849-1864).
He was the first to describe #MultipleSclerosis, and gave an account of progressive muscular atrophy (sometimes called Cruveilhier's atrophy or paralysis).
His injections of mercury into blood vessels and bronchial systems made possible the concepts of #embolism and #infarction developed by Virchow.
