This paper investigates the power of a statistical procedure for comparing a unit's survival experience to a standard survival curve. The power of the statistical procedure provides a measure of how sensitive the test is to departures from the nominal values provided by the standard survival curve.

## Abstract The advantages and disadvantages of the different methods for calculating survival according to the TNM (__T__opography, Lymph __N__ode, and __M__etastasis) are described. Methods include the observed, relative, and conditional survival rates. For large cohorts, relative survival calcul
