While medical ethics has been considered since the early days of civilization, it has come into prominence over the course of the last century due to medical advances that have an impact upon a broad array of health issues ranging from conception to the end-of-life and beyond. In light of the pace and scope of current technological developments in medicine, medical ethics now has an even greater level of importance and relevance to biomedical science and clinical practice as the amount and uses of medical information reach even further into the unknown.
