Hi, Thanks for the excellent resource. I may have missed it, but is there information anywhere on how the "treatment with radiation" score is assigned? A single patient has a score for each sample. Does this mean that if the score is 1 a round of radiation was given before the sample was taken, and not after? Many thanks, Lucy

Hi Lucy, Thank you for your interest. In the clinical.surgeries table, there are a few radiation variables. One is "treatment_radiation", where 1 = radiation was given and 0 = it was not given. There is also "treatment_radiation_dose_gy" which indicates the dosage of radiation, and "treatment_radiation_fractions" which indicates the number of fractions given. Regarding the timing, treatment in the surgeries table is forward looking, which means that if a primary sample is has a value of 1 for "treatment_radiation," the patient received radiation after the surgery was done. I hope this helps. Fred
