Rules for description generation:

  1. Apply General rules for generating descriptions for templates

  2. Apply Enhancements for the Template Language

  3. Remove word 'chronic' from the descriptions of [morphology] to avoid double 'chronic', e.g. chronic chronic inflammation in descriptions. 

  4. When clinical course is chronic and morphology has value of Chronic inflammatory morphology, descriptions are commonly presented in form of -itis, e.g. Chronic hepatitis, Chronic pancreatitis. The variable [morphology] should be kept in descriptions. Then, authors should modify descriptions manually.  New rules can be developed in future to generated descriptions based on finding site, e.g. liver structure - hepatitis, pancreatic structure - pancreatitis.
