Etymology
The term 'cancer' has its origins in the Latin word 'cancer', meaning 'crab'. This name was likely given by the ancient Greeks, who observed the resemblance between the shape of a crab and the projections of a malignant tumor. The Greek physician Hippocrates also used the term 'oncos' which means swelling, to describe tumors. Over time, the term evolved across languages and became what we know today. The understanding of cancer has significantly progressed since antiquity, with the development of modern medicine allowing for better diagnosis and treatment options. Primitive treatments in ancient times have developed into advanced therapies with an understanding of the genetic and environmental factors contributing to cancer.
