Peripheral Blood Involvement
This input is used for staging
Notes
**Note 1:** The categories for peripheral blood involvement (B rating) are * B0: No significant blood involvement * B1: Low blood tumor burden * B2: High blood tumor burden **Note 2:** Physician statement of B rating can be used to code this data item. **Note 3:** If counts or percentages of neoplastic cells and clonality test results are available, but a B rating is not stated by the physician, the registrar can use the information and assign a B rating and code this data item accordingly. If this information is not available, code 9.Default
