It's part of the IASLC TNM scale of cancer used internationally where T = tumour so the number after that denotes the size/position of the tumour, N = lymph nodes so if the number is zero, it hasn't spread to the lymph and M = metastases meaning spread to another organ/part of the body so if the number is zero, it hasn't spread elsewhere. The latest version of the scale in use is TNM8. hope that helps. good luck with your recovery.
