Foreword Cytologic diagnosis of cancer has its roots in clinical microscopy as it was shaped during the first half of the 19th century. In reviewing some of the early writing on this subject, one is amazed at the accuracy of the descriptions and soundness of the observations. Cytology of the urine is no exception: in 1864 Sanders described fragments of cancerous tissue in the urine of a patient with bladder cancer (Edinburgh Med. J. 111, 273). This observation was confirmed by Dickinson in 1869 (Tr. Path. Soc. London, 20, 233).

Papanicolaou freely acknowledged these contributions while establishing sound scientific bases for continuation and spread of this work. Papanicol
