It is located to the south of the towns of Åndalsnes and Molde inside the Reinheimen National Park.

Medical Eponym
Medical eponyms are terms used in medicine which are named after people (and occasionally places or things). In 1975, the Canadian National Institutes of Health held a conference that discussed the naming of diseases and conditions. This was reported in ''The Lancet'' where the conclusion was summarized as: "The possessive use of an eponym should be discontinued, since the author neither had nor owned the disorder." New discoveries are often attached to the people who made the discovery because of the nature of the history of medicine. * List of eponymous diseases * List of eponymous fractures * List of eponymous medical signs * List of eponymous surgical procedures * List of eponymous tests * List of human anatomical parts named after people * List of eponymous medical devices * List of eponymous medical treatments * List of medical eponyms with Nazi associations * List of orthopaedic eponyms * List of eponyms in neuroscience, neurology and neurosurgery References {{Refl ...
