Comments: This field holds the 'key' in the core key-value pair comprised of the observation_type field and the relevant value(s) field. 'Overall' should be used when: the source staging value is not definitively 'Clinical' or 'Pathological' (e.g. a TNM staged cancer without a clear indication of clinical vs pathological), or the source staging system does not use T, N, or M components and only has a single overall staging value (e.g. FIGO staging)
Examples: Overall
Tumor (T)
Node (N)
Metastasis (M)
Clinical Overall
Clinical Tumor (T)
Clinical Node (N)
Clinical Metastasis (M)
Pathological Overall
Pathological Tumor (T)
Pathological Node (N)
Pathological Metastasis (M)
