Abstract

The parallel development of life science and cancer treatment after the introduction of the cell theory in 1838 can be briefly summarized as shown in Fig. 11.1. In the mid-1850s, cancer entered the field of science after being designated as neoplasm, which is defined as a new mass of cells created from the division of tumor cells.
