Vickery, Jr., M.D., Professor of Pathology, emeritus, at Harvard Medical School and a leader in Surgical Pathology at the Massachusetts General Hospital for over 50 years, died March 2, 2005, at his home in Westwood, Massachusetts. Dr. Vickerys contributions to medical science place him in the top tier of pathologists of his day. He was an expert on the pathology of the endocrine system, particularly the thyroid gland. He authored many important papers on the thyroid, including pioneering descriptions of needle biopsy diagnosis, radiation effects, thyroiditis and thyroid tumors. Having trained before the era of subspecialization, Dr. Vickery was knowledgeable in many areas of surgical pathology, and also published important studies in prostatic and gastrointestinal pathology.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/dev.news.harvard.edu\/gazette\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/06\/24-mm-1.jpg"}
