What does Staging a tumor mean?
Staging a tumor is assessing the extent of tumor spread. It's described in numbers, usually 1 through 4.

When a malignancy is diagnosed, tests are performed to assess whether it has metastasized (spread to other locations) and also to see how differentiated the tumor cells are (this is referred to as grading the tumor).
