Hi OncoTree, 

At some point since early 2025 the names of the following diseases were changed.  The words "cell" or "lymphoma" or "excess blasts" used to be capitalized but now they are lower case.  But the change was not applied globally-- it was just to these diseases.  Was this intentional? 
  • ABC (Activated B-cell Type)
  • BCLU (B-Cell Lymphoma, Unclassifiable, with Features Intermediate between DLBCL and Classical Hodgkin lymphoma)
  • EMALT (Extranodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma of Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT lymphoma))
  • HSTCL (Hepatosplenic T-cell Lymphoma)
  • MDSEB1 (MDS with excess blasts-1)
  • MDSEB2 (MDS with excess blasts-2)
  • PTCL (Peripheral T-Cell lymphoma, NOS)
Thanks, 
Matt
