Sufferers from mesothelioma may find that their condition is measured on one of several scales. The three most common are the Butchart system, the TNM system and the Brigham system.
In each system, the idea is to track the progression of the asbestos lung cancer. The oldest of these three models, the Butchart system, uses the mass of the tumour alone to determine how serious the condition has become, from stage 1 where the tumour is in one lung to stage 4 where it has spread to other organs.
The TNM system attempts to provide a more informative scale by considering the spread of the asbestos cancer, how far it has travelled and whether it has reached the lymph nodes on the other side of the body from the original diagnosis. The name is an acronym derived from Tumour, Nodes and Metastasis, the technical term for the progression of the industrial disease to other organs.
The Brigham System also takes into account the chances of surgery having an effect on the condition, or resectability.
For a person making a mesothelioma compensation claim, it is likely that the progression of the asbestos-related disease will be one of the variables that a no win, no fee lawyer will be examining as part of the evidence in the case.
