Until the fifteenth century, the knowledge about anatomy and function of the nervous system had been significantly influenced by theological notions. Andreas Vesalius of Brussels (1514-1564), based on human cadavers' dissections, criticized his predecessors and contributed to the construction of the current knowledge about functional neuroanatomy. Although he did not avoid mistakes, he successfully demonstrated the high value of human cadavers' dissection in anatomical teaching.
直到 15 世纪，解剖学和神经系统功能的知识还深受神学观念的影响。布鲁塞尔的安德烈亚斯·维萨里乌斯（Andreas Vesalius，1514-1564 年），基于对人类尸体的解剖，对前人的观点提出了批评，并为当前有关功能神经解剖学的知识体系的构建做出了贡献。尽管他也犯过错误，但他成功地证明了在解剖学教学中使用人类尸体解剖的重要价值。
