# Acronyms that do not have to be spelled out.
#
# The linter's `Radiopaedia.Acronyms` check says "'ELISA' has no definition.
# Spell it out if it's unfamiliar to the audience." — and on a radiology
# article a good few of them are not unfamiliar to anybody, while others are
# not abbreviations to expand at all but the name of a trial or of a scoring
# system. This file is the list of those, and a finding on one of them is not
# shown.
#
# One entry per line, and the whole acronym: matching is by WHOLE WORD, not by
# prefix, so "PE" covers "PE" and nothing else — "PET" and "PE-RADS" each need
# their own line. Case is ignored. '#' starts a comment, blank lines are
# ignored, and a comment may follow an entry on its own line:
#
#     ELISA   # enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
#
# An entry here hides the finding for EVERYBODY running the script, so the bar
# is "no radiologist reading this article needs it spelled out", not "I know
# what it means". Anything that means two things depending on the sentence —
# ER, US, GE, NB, TX — belongs nowhere near this file: on those the linter is
# doing its job, and the fix is in the article.
#
# To add one: the Lint bar offers it on the finding itself — press p, and the
# acronym is copied and this file opens on GitHub, where you paste it in and
# propose the change. Everyone using the script gets it once it is merged.
