Guide for use: | For cancer registries, collection of this data item should only be from notification and pathology reports relating to initial diagnosis and not for recurrent or metastatic disease. If the primary site differs on multiple pathology or other notification reports for the same tumour, use the most specific value. For multifocal tumours with foci in more than one quadrant, use the quadrant of the largest focus. |
