After getting diagnosed with cancer, the next very important step is for your medical team to determine if your cancer has spread to any other parts of your body (metastasized). Each stage may require a different treatment approach. Of the many staging systems, the “TNM” is the most common.
- T - Refers to the size of the tumor
- N - Indicates the number of lymph nodes involved
- M - Refers to the presence of metastasis
