5. Grading

Doctors grade MFH tumors to classify the aggressiveness of the cancer. This helps determine the best course of treatment and the patient's prognosis. Low grade (G1) tumors have a low likelihood of spreading to other areas of the body. Intermediate grade (G2) tumors have a moderate risk of growing and spreading. High grade (G3) tumors are the most aggressive type and are very likely to grow and spread.
