| ARCHETYPE ID | openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.tumour_focality.v0 |
|---|---|
| Concept | Tumor focality |
| Description | Describes the focality or focus of the tumor in a cancer patient. |
| Use | To record the focality of the tumor in a patient with a cancer diagnosis. This cluster archetype was created specifically for the SLOT ‘Specific information’ of the EVALUATION.problem_diagnosis archetype. However, when clinically appropriate, may be added as a slot in other archetypes used to represent an imaging or histological finding. |
| Misuse | Not to be used to represent the lateral location of a tumor. To do this, use the cluster archetypes from the “Anatomical Localization” family. Not to be used for any disease other than cancer. |
| Purpose | To record the focality or focus of the tumor in a cancer patient. |
