Notes
**Note:** For bone marrow micrometastasis, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) or disseminated tumor cells and clusters (DTCs) are less than or equal to 0.2 mm and assigned code 05.
* Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) or disseminated tumor cells and clusters (DTCs) should not be coded as present under the Mets at Dx-Other field. Code 0 for Mets at Dx-Other when code 05 is coded in EOD mets.
