Schema Discriminator 1: Histology Discriminator for 9591/3

This input is used for staging

Description

There are multiple hematopoietic terms that have the same ICD-O histology code (9591/3). However, for purposes of stage grouping AJCC 8th edition, they are in different chapters. A schema discriminator is necessary to distinguish between these histology terms so that the appropriate sub(chapter)/schema is used.

Notes
