However, it is equally crucial to detect the exact stage of this condition. Stages of cancer describe the size of cancer and how far it has spread. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to understand the stage of cancer for the following reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To decide the treatment plan<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To know the prognosis<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Predict the chances of recurrence<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The diagnosis of breast cancer can be done by medical history and physical examination, mammography, ultrasound, biopsy, blood investigations, tumour marker tests, X-ray, MRI, and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The TNM system is the most common staging system when it comes to breast cancer. In TNM, \u2018T\u2019 stands for tumor or lump found in the breast, \u2018N\u2019 stands for nodes as in lymph nodes, as these can catch cancer cells before they spread to other parts of the body, and, finally, &#8216;M&#8217; stands for metastasis, which is the spread of cancer to other organs of the body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.askdrshah.com\/askyourquestionpage.aspx\">We treat patients from USA, UK, Canada, Australia, UAE &amp; 180 more countries.

The greater is the stage number the more cancer has been spread.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While describing cancer, one may commonly hear doctors talking about the following terms:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>1.Cancer In Situ: <\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This signifies the original place. Cancer cells are present only in the duct or lobule, where it has started. They have not travelled to nearby tissue. This is in stage 0.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2.Early Stage Breast Cancer:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this stage, the size of the tumour is smaller than 5 cm, and cancer may not have been spread to more than 3 lymph nodes. This is known to include stages IA, IB, and IIA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3.Locally Advanced Breast Cancer:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this stage, the size of the tumour is greater than 5 cm and cancer may have spread to the skin, muscles of the chest wall, or more than 3 lymph nodes. It comprises stages IIB, IIIA, IIIB, IIIC.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>4.Metastatic Breast Cancer<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the metastatic stage, cancer tends to have been spread to the other parts of the body.

In this sub-stage, cancer may or may not have spread to the lymph nodes<\/li>\n<li>Stage IIIC- Cancer has spread to 10 or more lymph nodes. It may have also spread to the lymph nodes above or below the collar bones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Stage IV:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Metastatic breast cancer.
