Description
Although TNM classification has found wide acceptance, some workers have pointed out that individual definitions and rules for staging are not sufficiently detailed. This can lead to inconsistent application of the classification, the antithesis of standardization. This source of differences in interpretation applies not only to the classification of individual organs, but also to the general rules of the system, especially to the definitions of the requirements for the pathological classification.
