Rules for description generation: 

  1. Apply General rules for generating descriptions for templates;

  2. Apply Enhancements for the Template Language;

  3. For magnetic resonance imaging guidance, the naming should be FSN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using magnetic resonance imaging guidance (procedure), PT: MRI guided [access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] - This PT should use case significance CS, SYN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using magnetic resonance imaging guidance.

  4. For computed tomography guidance, the naming should be FSN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using computed tomography guidance (procedure), PT: CT guided [access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] - This PT should use case significance CS, SYN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using computed tomography guidance.

  5. For ultrasonography guidance, the naming should be FSN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using ultrasonographic guidance (procedure), PT: Ultrasonography guided [access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure], SYN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using ultrasonographic guidance, SYN: [Access] [biopsy needle] biopsy of [morphology] of [body structure] using ultrasound guidance.

  6. For percutaneous fine needle aspiration biopsy, the descriptions should follow this example format: FSN: Percutaneous fine needle aspiration biopsy of X (procedure), PT: Percutaneous fine needle aspiration biopsy of X, SYN: Percutaneous fine needle aspiration of X, SYN: Percutaneous fine needle biopsy of X. Imaging guidance should be inserted in descriptions as appropriate.
