Which staging

Article refers to stages 1,2,3,4. Are these T numbers from the TNM system or Mountain system stages (see NSCLC) ? Rod57 (talk) 12:41, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, to keep things simple, it's the stage group that is being referred to in this article, not the T descriptor. Secondly, I see your issue, as, unfortunately, the language at that WP hyperlink is rather imprecise. Actually, the Mountain staging system is now folded completely into the TNM grouping process, and there is no longer any distinction between them, unlike some time ago. Perhaps I (or another good soul) will get round to making it more friendly.
