Life
[ edit ]
Jean Pecquet studied medicine at Montpellier , where he investigated the important discovery (in 1622, by Gaspare Aselli ) of the course of the lacteal vessels, including the receptaculum chyli (or reservoir of Pecquet, as it is sometimes called) and the termination of the principal lacteal vessel, the thoracic duct, into the left subclavian vein.[1] Edme Mariotte , he maintained that the retina, not the choroid, was the principal organ of vision.
