Müller, Johannes Ueber den feinern Bau und die Formen der krankhaften Geschwülste ... 1.Lieferung [All published] Berlin: G. Reimer, 1838 "At the end of 1837 Müller's student Theodor Schwann began working on his new cell theory, according to which the cells were the ultimate constituents of the animal body. On this basis Müller investigated pathological tumors, observing the similarity between the development of embryonic tissue and the formation of tumors from cells and showing that elements of normal tissue could be detected in the tumors. In 1838 he published the first and only part of his 'Ueber den feinern Bau ...'. The publication of this work fostered the use of the microscope in the study of pathological formations. Müller thus founded pathological histology as an independent field and provided physicians with diagnostic procedures that are now used in daily clinical work" (DSB) (PATHOLOGICAL ANATOMY) First edition, all published.
