\"Phthisiology\" está bien, pero no me gustaría usarla ya que en inglés casi siempre se prefiere un término más sencillo y uno que la gente sepa pronunciar, y se evitan las palabras \"domingueras\".

Phthisiology, derived from the Greek phthisis meaning wasting or consumption, is the historical term given to the study of TB. The fact that most health-care providers do not recognize this term attests to the many advances that were made during the 20th century. The advances were seen as so significant that even as late as the 1970s and most of the 1980s, TB was taught to medical students as a disease that was on the verge of elimination and deserved little attention except for its historical significance.
