Description
Detailed site-specific codes for the clinical tumor (T) as defined by the current AJCC edition.

This staging is used by physicians to estimate prognosis, to plan treatment, to evaluate new types of therapy, to analyze outcome, to design follow-up strategies, and to assess early detection results.
