Multiple primaries--Heme & Lymphoid Neoplasms: Could you please clarify Note 2 found in Rule M10, which is " 'Transformations to' (acute neoplasms) and 'Transformations from' (chronic neoplasms) are defined for each applicable histology in the database." Do the neoplasms being considered have to contain the words 'chronic' and/or 'acute'?

See Discussion.
