LOINC description : 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. This derived output records a c,
p, a, y, or N for clinical, pathological, autopsy only, or y prefix, respectively.
For those tumors in which AJCC TNM staging classification is performed during or following
initial multimodality therapy, the category is identified by a y prefix to be derived
from the computerized algorithm. .. NAACCR Data Standards and Data Dictionary Version
