 ### Preparing pull requests
 To ensure the code quality, MONAI relies on several linting tools ([flake8 and its plugins](https://gitlab.com/pycqa/flake8), [black](https://github.com/psf/black), [isort](https://github.com/timothycrosley/isort), [ruff](https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff)),
-static type analysis tools ([mypy](https://github.com/python/mypy), [pytype](https://github.com/google/pytype)), as well as a set of unit/integration tests.
+static type analysis tools ([ty](https://docs.astral.sh/ty/), [pytype](https://github.com/google/pytype)), as well as a set of unit/integration tests.
 
 This section highlights all the necessary preparation steps required before sending a pull request.
 To collaborate efficiently, please read through this section and follow them.
