English
TNM staging systemdefinition: widely used cancer staging system based on the size of the tumor (T), the degree of lymph node involvement (N), and the presence or absence of metastasis (M). Each feature is given a number specifying the cancer stage (e.g., T2N2M1). Since all cancers are different, they all have different staging guidelines. (en)

Spanish
clasificación TNMdefinition: sistema de clasificación del cáncer que se basa en el tamaño del tumor (T), el grado de implicación de los ganglios linfáticos (N), y la presencia o ausencia de metástasis (M). Cada rasgo se representa con un número indicativo del grado (por ejemplo, T2N2M1). Puesto que los tipos de cáncer son todos distintos, cada uno se rige por un sistema de grados diferente. (es)
