https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/tnm-lung-staging/id1121512631?mt=8 some of the clinicians I work with use apps such as this one to help them determine TNM scores, and other grading systems, should we look at some of these as part of our investigations into staging?
Stefan Lang (Jun 28 2017 at 19:58):
I would use apps as a secondary source.
IMHO the first place to look at should be the original documents, like (for solid tumors):
https://cancerstaging.org/references-tools/deskreferences/Pages/default.aspx (for the Americas)
http://www.uicc.org/resources/tnm (for the rest of the world)
Never forgetting things like Ann-Arbor for certain non-solid tumors and eventually the myriads of very specific classification systems

@Stefan Lang agreed, we should start at the source of truth
