Since 1960 Prof. Thiel has developed his own method of embalming cadavers in Graz. The aim was to facilitate both students and doctors of medicine to find conditions on cadavers comparable to living persons. Thus an optimal possibility was created: Surgeons of different special fields are now enabled to train surgery on cadavers as an exercise before acting on patients. In addition new instruments and new methods of surgical approaches have been and can be developed. Thiel’s method of embalming was published in 1992 and 2002 in Annals of Anatomy. Doctors and anatomists from all over the world have come to Graz in the meantime to learn his method in order to use it in their homelands for students education and in postgraduate courses for doctors. Based on this embalming Prof. Thiel published also an atlas – named: Photographic Atlas of Practical Anatomy. The first edition – translated into many languages - is out of print, the second edition has been on sale since December 2002.
The main advantage of the new embalming is that the cadavers colour, consistency and movability are preserved to a very great extent. In Addition the storable stock solution and the working solutions are bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal. The institute of anatomy in Graz houses approximately one thousand doctors every year, who visit the institute to attend our workshops and postgraduate courses on embalmed cadavers as a result of the special facilities given.

The course is dealing with surgical approaches, anatomy and techniques of osteosynthesis in a masters course. The main interest is extended pracital exercises and hands-onwork on cadavers at the Institute of Anatomy by only two participants for each working station. Beside the scientific program Graz – Europe’s Culture Capital 2003 – UNESCO world Heritage Site – has a lot of attractions and sightseeing.
