| | 2 | |
| | 3 | The NIHR !BioResource questionnaire includes a question on cancer history, and also family history of cancer, which asks participants to specify the 'type' of cancer. This is submitted as a free text entry field, but needs to be coded to a list. |
| | 4 | |
| | 5 | Our intention is to build up a picking list for this, compiled from the answers given by participants, and add to it as the recruitment process expands. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | Ideally the data should be mapped to SNOMED CT or ICD codes, but the level of specificity in participants answers is likely to be low. So finding codes for an equivalent level of specificity may be difficult. |

| | 9 | Initial picking list should contain: |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | Breast |
| | 12 | Bowel |
| | 13 | Lung |
| | 14 | Prostate |
| | 15 | Skin |
| | 16 | Stomach |
