A broad cancer-related value set containing both primary and secondary tumor types, with codes from ICD-10 and SNOMED CT, including both diagnosis and histology/morphology/behavior codes. ICD-O-3 morphology codes may also be used and are considered conformant to the specification. For SNOMED, the value set includes all codes descending from 363346000 ‘Malignant neoplastic disease (disorder)’ and 108369006 ‘Neoplasm (morphologic abnormality)’.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
