As a clinical discipline with distinct characteristics of life medical science, oncology is a typical discipline that combines the advantages of Chinese and Western medicine. TCM has two different cultural attributes, the humanities and the natural sciences. However, when confronted with such a serious disease as cancer, the approach of natural science of TCM should be emphasized to participate in anti-cancer practice.展开更多
