LOINC description : This item belongs to the set of Collaborative Staging (CS) data items effective with
2004 diagnosis. It is based on and replaces EOD--Tumor size [780]. For most sites,
CS Tumor Size is used to record the largest dimension, or the diameter of the primary
tumor in millimeters (for example: 1 mm 001, 1 cm 010). See the CS schemes for
site-specific variants. For many sites, the CS algorithm uses this data item to derive
the Derived AJCC T [2940] according to the sixth edition of AJCC Cancer Staging Manual.
CS is a group of data items set up by a joint task force including representatives
from SEER, ACoS, CDC, NAACCR, NCRA, and AJCC, designed to provide a single uniform
set of codes and rules for coding EOD/ stage information to meet the needs of all
of the participating standard setters. CS incorporates all of the fields from SEER
10-digit EOD, in a modified form, and adds several additional fields. When CS data
items are coded, a computer algorithm allows generation of AJCC Sixth Edition TNM
stage, SEER Summary Stage 1977, and SEER Summary Stage 2000. Separate CS fields are
provided in the NAACCR record for these outputs. .. NAACCR Data Standards and Data
