banffIT: Automated Standardized Assignment of the Banff Classification

Assigns standardized diagnoses using the Banff Classification (Category 1 to 6 diagnoses, including Acute and Chronic active T-cell mediated rejection as well as Active, Chronic active, and Chronic antibody mediated rejection). The main function considers a minimal dataset containing biopsies information in a specific format (described by a data dictionary), verifies its content and format (based on the data dictionary), assigns diagnoses, and creates a summary report. The package is developed on the reference guide to the Banff classification of renal allograft pathology Roufosse C, Simmonds N, Clahsen-van Groningen M, et al. A (2018) <doi:10.1097/TP.0000000000002366>. The full description of the Banff classification is available at <https://banfffoundation.org/>.
