Cambridge [England], May 2 (ANI): Between 9-14 per cent of adults in medieval Britain had cancer at the time of their death, suggests the first study to use x-rays and CT scans to detect evidence of the disease among the skeletal remains of a pre-industrial population.
The findings of the study are published today in the journal Cancer.
This puts cancer prevalence in a time before exposure to tumour-inducing chemicals from industry and tobacco at around ten times higher than previously thought, according to researchers.
Prior research into historic cancer rates using the archaeological record has been limited to examining the bone exterior for lesions. It suggested that cancer was rare, affecting less than 1% of the population. ....
