Pierre Barbet (physician)
Pierre Barbet was a French physician, and the chief surgeon at Saint Joseph's Hospital in Paris.
By performing various experiments, Barbet introduced a set of theories on the crucifixion of Jesus.
In 1950 he wrote a long study called A Doctor at Calvary which was later published as a book. Barbet stated that his experience as a battlefield surgeon during World War I led him to conclude that the image on the Shroud of Turin was authentic, anatomically correct and consistent with crucifixion.
