Title Arthur Schüller in Australia.
Host Item Australian Jewish Historical Society Journal 26,3 (2023) 343-354
Description In August 1938 the eminent Austrian radiologist Arthur Schüller landed in Australia. For a man who had travelled extensively, this was his last major trip and he was to stay in Australia for the remaining 18 years of his life, which is described in this article. The author’s father [John] Keith Henderson (1923-2017) came to Melbourne from Perth in 1940 to study medicine and graduated in 1945. He was aware of Schüller during his medical student years at St Vincent’s Hospital and in his second postgraduate year as a resident medical officer rotated onto the neurosurgical unit of Frank Morgan. He decided to train in neurosurgery and spent the following two years on the unit, where he was in almost daily contact with Schüller. Undoubtedly a close bond developed between the two, and Schüller attended Keith’s wedding. In retrospect Schüller clearly had a profound impact on Keith’s career. This article is based on the book Arthur Schüller: Founder of Neuroradiology. A Liife on Two Continents (Ormond, Vic., Hybrid Publishers, 2021) by Keith with son Michael’s assistance.
