SUMMARY Andreus veasalius is the father of anatomy and moderm anatomical scinces. the belgian phyaician (Veasalius)made a considerable of padoa university in Italy, and also after the publication of his famous book about the human body factory" reached the new peak. However in contrary to the belif of medical and eastern historians Veasalius was not quite inventive. he had used the Islamic medical sourcess to establish the principles and foundation of anatomy, and was highly influenced by parsian and moslem physicians. Here we will investigate those sources, mainly the oldest of them "HEDAE AKHAVEINY" which was written by one of the Rezi's students. we will also explain the place of theoretical, practical, and clinical anatomy in Islamic medicines. We are aware of the importance of theoretical anatomy for Islamic physicans, but they dealed with clinical anatomy in different way which will be discussed later. It is obvious that Islamic medicine wouldn't be able to bring about great physician and surgeon, such as Ebn Hyssen in eye physiology, Zahravi in general surgery, Ali Ebn Elsa in eye surgery, Ebn Nafis in discovery of blood circulation and Respiratory system, and, .... if they did not have a great knowledge in anatomy and also the start of new medicine in Renaissance.
