Title: Revised Medical Criteria for Evaluating Cancer (Malignant Neoplastic Diseases) (3757F) 
Abstract:

Sections 13.00 and 113.00, Malignant Neoplastic Diseases, of appendix 1 to subpart P of our regulations describe malignant neoplastic diseases that we consider severe enough to prevent an individual from doing any gainful activity or that cause marked and severe functional limitations for a child claiming SSI payments under title XVI. We will revise these sections to ensure that the medical evaluation criteria are up-to-date and consistent with the latest advances in medical knowledge and treatment.
