      The Aggressive Infection-Related East African Lymphomas (AI-REAL), is a collaboration between clinical and academic institutions in Tanzania (Muhimbili National Hospital, Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences), Uganda (St Mary’s Hospital, Lacor) and the UK (University of Oxford) that aims to assess the accuracy of two low-cost novel technologies (for diagnosing EBVL in East African patients aged 3 to 30 suspected of having the condition:1. Liquid biopsy – The detection of fragments of lymphoma-specific DNA shed into the bloodstream from tumours. This test requires the collection of 10ml (2 teaspoons) of blood. We already have early data from an Oxford University study of lymphoma patients that shows a high sensitivity and specificity for ctDNA as a diagnostic tool.2. Mobile digital microscopy – A device that can reproduce high-resolution, diagnostic quality, whole slide digital images from blood smears and tissue biopsy slides to be assessed by pathologists remotely.
