In 1895, the first rigid sigmoidoscope was developed at Hopkins by Kelly.^[1]
In 1927, Lockhart-Mummery and Dukes recognized the precancerous changes in the rectum and colon and identified the staging system for colorectal cancer.
In 1960, Hertz and Deddish reported using sigmoidoscopy to screen colorectal cancer with 90% survival rate followed for over 15 years.
In 1967, Greegor used guaiac card test to detect early-stage colorectal cancer.
In 1973, Wolff and Shinya used colonoscopy to remove polyps.
In 1993, the polyp-cancer sequence was accepted by the National Polyp Study.

There have been several outbreaks of [disease name], which are summarized below:

In [year], [diagnostic test/therapy] was developed by [scientist] to treat/diagnose [disease name].
