In the hypothesis that the VM is a medical compendium, what is each section?

[Koen G]

Thanks Marco, these quotes do point in the direction of a medical compendium. I also agree that Panofsky's interpretation appears speculative, as if he did not want to dig too deep. Would it be fair to say that such remarks tend to look at the manuscript with a birds' eye view, without necessarily getting into the details? (This is not meant in a dismissive way: each perspective has its merits and most readers would probably get a cursory glance at most pages). Or, put differently, that specialists feel more confident assessing the overall themes of a section rather than getting into all the details?
