During most of the nineteenth century, the discipline of pathology in Boston made substantial strides as a result of physicians and surgeons who practiced pathology on a part-time basis. The present essay tells the subsequent story, beginning in 1892, when full-time pathologists begin to staff the medical schools and hospitals of Boston. Three individuals from this era deserve special mention: William T Councilman, Frank Burr Mallory and James Homer Wright, with Councilman remembered primarily as a visionary and teacher, Mallory as a trainer of many pathologists, and Wright as a scientist. Together with S Burt Wolbach in the early-to-mid-twentieth century, these pathologists went on to train the next generation of pathologists-a generation that then populated the various hospitals that were developed in Boston in the early 1900s. This group of seminal pathologists in turn formed the diagnostically strong, academically productive, pathology departments that grew in Boston over the remainder of the twentieth century.
在19世纪的大部分时间里，波士顿的病理学学科取得了长足的进步，这得益于一些兼职从事病理学工作的内科医生和外科医生。本文讲述的是后续的故事，始于1892年，当时全职病理学家开始在波士顿的医学院和医院任职。这个时代有三个人值得特别提及：威廉·T·康西尔曼、弗兰克·伯尔·马洛里和詹姆斯·霍默·赖特，康西尔曼主要被铭记为一位有远见卓识的人及教师，马洛里是众多病理学家的培训者，而赖特则是一位科学家。在20世纪上半叶，这些病理学家与S·伯特·沃尔巴赫一起，培养了下一代病理学家——这一代病理学家随后在20世纪初波士顿新建的各个医院工作。这一批开创性的病理学家反过来又组建了在20世纪余下时间里在波士顿不断发展壮大、诊断能力强大且学术成果丰硕的病理科。
