nameDeprecated M stage of distant metastasis in Breast tumor Qualitative by CAP cancer protocols

status reasonErroneous - Although TNM concepts are included in the College of American Pathologists (CAP) cancer protocols, the TNM classification is maintained by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), not CAP as the Method implies. The term is deprecated because it does not represent the M stage accurately.
