Distance of tumor from closest margin:Len:Pt:Specimen:Qn:Macroscopy

Preferred Label : Distance of tumor from closest margin:Len:Pt:Specimen:Qn:Macroscopy;

LOINC status : ACTIVE;

LOINC display name : Distance of tumor from closest margin Macroscopy (Spec) [Length];

LOINC long common name : Distance of tumor from closest margin [Length] in Specimen by Macroscopy;

LOINC short name : Tumor from Closest Margin Spec Macro;

LOINC description : In a specimen, the distance from the tumor to the nearest proximal or distal margin (cut end) is recorded. The tumor distance to margins is based on macroscopic assessment and confirmed or amended on microscopy ([LOINC: 81182-8] or [LOINC: 81183-6]), especially when the macroscopic size is difficult to assess (i.e. in early gastric carcinoma and diffuse carcinoma).;
