Who performed vivisections on humans galen di vinci herophilus diocles hepacia?

Vivisections on humans were primarily associated with Herophilus, a Greek physician from the 3rd century BCE, who is often regarded as one of the first to systematically study human anatomy through dissection and vivisection. While Galen and others conducted animal dissections, Herophilus is noted for his controversial practice of human dissection. Neither Leonardo da Vinci nor Hypatia is known for performing vivisections on humans, and Diocles, although an important figure in ancient medicine, is less well-documented regarding vivisection specifically.
