LOINC short name : Derived AJCC N Cancer;
LOINC description : This is the AJCC N component that is derived from coded fields, using the CS algorithm,
effective with 2004 diagnosis. 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. The Storage Code column
is the value to be stored in the NAACCR record. The 2-character numeric Storage Codes
are designed for analysis purposes. The Display String is the corresponding label
that should be displayed on the screen or in a report. The meaning of these strings
is explained for each site in the AJCC Manual. .. NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary
