Label	Id	Description
Mixed Cell Uveal Melanoma	NCIT_C35781	[A melanoma arising from the choroid, ciliary body, or the iris. It is characterized by the presence of a mixture of spindle A melanoma cells, spindle B melanoma cells, and epithelioid melanoma cells.]
Ciliary Body Melanoma	NCIT_C4558	[A rare uveal melanoma that arises from the ciliary body. Patients may present with blurred vision, visual field loss, floaters, and ocular pain. The prognosis is usually poor.]
Non-Neoplastic Hair Disorder	NCIT_C35784	[A non-neoplastic disorder that affects the hair. Representative examples may include alopecia, male pattern baldness, hirsutism, and hair shaft disorders.]
Non-Neoplastic Skin Disorder	NCIT_C27555
Hair Disorder	NCIT_C34656	[A non-neoplastic or neoplastic disorder involving the hair. Representative examples include folliculitis, alopecia, tricholemmoma, and pilomatrical carcinoma.]
Muscle Soreness	NCIT_C35785
Symptom	NCIT_C4876	[Subjective evidence of disease perceived by the patient.]
Musculoskeletal Finding	NCIT_C110937	[Symptoms, physical examination results, and/or laboratory rest results related to the muscles and bones.]
Interstitial Myocarditis	NCIT_C35786	[Inflammation of the heart characterized by infiltration of the interstitial tissues by inflammatory cells, histiocytes, and the formation of granulomas. Giant cells are often present.]
Myocarditis	NCIT_C34831	[Inflammation of the muscle tissue of the heart.]
Epithelioid Cell Uveal Melanoma	NCIT_C35780	[A uveal melanoma characterized by the presence of malignant large epithelioid melanocytes.]
Uveal Melanoma	NCIT_C7712	[A melanoma derived from melanocytes of the uveal tract. It is the most common primary intraocular tumor in the United States and Western Europe. Similar to melanoma of the skin, it is rare in Africa and Asia. Diagnostic procedures include ophthalmoscopic exam, fluorescein angiography and ultrasound. Treatment includes: surgical excision of the eye, iridocyclectomy and tumor resection. Recent treatments also include radiotherapy or photo coagulation. Classification of uveal melanomas recognizes four cell types within these tumors: epithelioid, intermediate, mixed cell, and spindle cell types. The spindle cell type uveal melanomas are further sub-classified as spindle cell type A and spindle cell type B.]
Epithelioid Cell Melanoma	NCIT_C4236	[A melanoma characterized by the presence of malignant large epithelioid melanocytes.]
Mixed Epithelioid and Spindle Cell Melanoma	NCIT_C66756	[A melanoma characterized by the presence of malignant large epithelioid melanocytes and malignant spindle-shaped melanocytes.]
Choroid Mixed Cell Melanoma	NCIT_C35782
Choroid Melanoma	NCIT_C4561	[A uveal melanoma that arises from the choroid. It is the most common primary malignant intraocular tumor. It usually affects Caucasians of northern European descent. It usually remains asymptomatic for a long period. When signs and symptoms occur, they include blurred vision, visual field loss, floaters, and ocular pain. Tumor size is the most important factor that relates to prognosis.]
