Permissible values for a given TNM site for M-parameter (metastasis) of TNM
Permissible values for a given TNM site for N-parameter (lymph nodes) of TNM.
Permissible values for a given TNM site for T-parameter (tumour) of TNM (but not inluding those for in situ tumours).
Diagnostic method (clinical or pathology)used for ascertaining TNM values
TNM classification for stages of solid tumours
Collective name space for TNM classes commom to different TNM editions. Consists of all the permissible T, N, and M codes for malignant tumours for a specific TNM site. T codes for in situ tumours (e.g. T0) are not included since the code spaces are primarily used as a means of condensing the number of axioms that would otherwise need to be stated for the higher TNM stages.

Groupings of morphologies in relation to the groups used by TNM
TNM site as given in the TNM tables of the different TNM editions. This tree is mirrored in the ontologies for the specific TNM editions and appended with the associated TNM eidition.
The various stages are not made disjoint with each other since a number of stages may be allowed for the the same TNM values (e.g. colorectal stages II and IIA)
