  Tumor Grade: Questions and Answers - National Cancer Institute
Tumor grade is a system used to classify cancer cells in terms of how abnormal they look under a microscope and how quickly the tumor is likely to grow and spread (see Question 2).
Nuclear grade refers to the size and shape of the nucleus in tumor cells and the percentage of tumor cells that are dividing.
However, the importance of tumor grade in planning treatment and estimating a patient’s prognosis is greater for certain types of cancers, such as soft tissue sarcoma, primary brain tumors, lymphomas, and breast and prostate cancer.
