Identifying codes for the type of cancer staging performed. In terms of the SNOMED CT hierarchy, these codes represent observables.

Usage

This value set is used in conjunction with the CancerStageGroup profile. The codes identify the observable associated with the resource and includes tumor stage observables from the SNOMED CT observables hierarchy. The values from this value set appear in the Observation.code element.

When staging with a TNM-based system, the more specific profiles TNMStageGroup, TNMPrimaryTumorCategory, TNMRegionalNodesCategory, and TNMDistantMetastasesCategory should be used.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
