Notes:
*This classification is still evolving.<ref>URL: [http://www.cytopathology.org/the-milan-system-for-reporting-salivary-gland-cytopathology/ http://www.cytopathology.org/the-milan-system-for-reporting-salivary-gland-cytopathology/].

*The goal is to complete the reporting system by the summer of 2017.
