What Are Some Common Standardized Formats in Cancer Research?
Several standardized formats are widely used in cancer research, including:
TNM staging: This system classifies cancer based on tumor size (T), involvement of lymph nodes (N), and presence of metastasis (M). RECIST criteria: These guidelines are used to evaluate the response of solid tumors to treatment. AJCC Cancer Staging Manual: This manual provides detailed criteria for staging various types of cancer.
