Phonation List URL: https://thecommonvein.com/history-and-culture/songs-music-phonation-list/


INSTRUCTIONS FOR PART A (PHONETIC SONG VERSION)

1. Title
Write the disease or finding name as the main title.

2. Verse 1 – Introduction & Category
• Start with: “This song is about [DISEASE/FINDING]…”
• Identify the medical category (inflammatory, immune, infection, cancer, mechanical, metabolic, trauma, vascular, idiopathic, etc.).
• Tell where the process begins anatomically (e.g., alveoli, interstitium, bronchioles).
• Describe how it spreads (alveoli → interstitium → septa → pleura).
• Use phonetic spellings from the phonation list.

3. Verse 2 – Radiology
• Short, direct description of how the disease appears on CT/CXR.
• Include distribution (upper, lower, central, peripheral).
• Include 1–3 key diagnostic signs.
• Keep it factual, not poetic.

4. Chorus – Core Mechanism
• 2–3 lines summarizing the pathophysiology in simple terms.
• Include the primary mechanism (inflammation, fibrosis, obstruction, hemorrhage).
• This should reinforce the key teaching point.

5. Verse 3 – Differential Diagnosis
• Start with: “Look-alikes include…”
• List only 3–5 essential mimics.
• Focus on patterns, not long descriptions.

6. Repeat Chorus
• Repeat the same chorus exactly.

7. Outro – Key Takeaways + Treatment
• Start with: “Things to remember include…”
• Give 4–5 critical pearls: pattern, distribution, mechanism, key associated disease.
• Give the treatment or next step in one short line.


GENERAL RULES FOR PART A

Target length: <200 words (≈2 minutes of singing).
No rhyming required. Rhythm is fine.
Never repeat information from earlier verses.
Always use phonetic spellings from the phonation library.
• Keep the language clear, direct, and medically accurate.
• If details conflict, prioritize radiologic teaching clarity.


2. HTML FRAMEWORK FOR PART B

Copy/paste this block when producing the final version:

<div style="text-align:center;">

<h4>Title: [Disease or Finding Name]</h4>

(Verse 1 – Introduction & Category)
[Clean text – what the condition is, what category it belongs to, where it begins anatomically]

(Verse 2 – Radiology)
[Core imaging pattern – distribution, density, key diagnostic clues]

(Chorus – Core Mechanism)
[One to three lines summarizing mechanism]

(Verse 3 – Differential Diagnosis)
[Look-alike diseases – only those relevant to the imaging pattern]

(Chorus – Repeat)
[Same chorus as above]

(Outro – Key Takeaways + Treatment)
[3–5 crisp clinical pearls, including treatment if appropriate]

</div>

<h4>Poem: [Poem Title]</h4>
<div style=“text-align:center;”>
[4–8 line poem, no phonetics, no rhymes required, reinforces the radiology + clinical idea]
</div>


3. DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR EACH SECTION

(Verse 1 – Introduction & Category)

Include:

  • What the disease is

  • Its classification (infection, immune, neoplastic, fibrotic, occupational, etc.)

  • Where the process begins anatomically

  • How it spreads (alveoli → interstitium → airways → vessels, etc.)

Tone: factual, succinct, no repetition.


(Verse 2 – Radiology)

Include the 3–6 defining imaging features, such as:

  • Distribution (upper/lower/mid, central/peripheral, perilymphatic, peribronchovascular)

  • Density pattern (GGO, consolidation, nodules, cysts, reticulation)

  • Key discriminator features

  • What is classically absent

Avoid:

  • Repeating mechanism details already stated

  • Overly long secondary features


(Chorus – Core Mechanism)

This is the anchor of the song.
Include:

  • A single sentence explaining the true mechanism

  • A single sentence explaining the radiologic expression

  • Optional: reversibility or chronicity

Keep the chorus consistent between first and repeat.


(Verse 3 – Differential Diagnosis)

Only include look-alikes specific to the imaging pattern, not everything in the universe.
List 3–5 items max.

Example structure:

  • “Look-alikes include…”

  • Infection vs inflammatory

  • Fibrotic vs cystic

  • Smoking-related vs immune-related


(Outro – Key Takeaways + Treatment)

Include 4–6 crisp bullets in sentence form:

  • Key imaging clue

  • Key mechanism

  • Clinical association

  • Treatment approach

  • Prognosis

Never introduce brand-new concepts here—just crystallize.


Poem Section

Purpose: warm summary, memory hook, reflective tone.

Rules:

  • 4–8 lines

  • One idea per line

  • No phonetics

  • No rhyming required

  • Focus on imaging + clinical meaning


4. WORD COUNT TARGET

To maintain a ~2-minute song:

Target: 200–260 words

  • Verse 1: 50–60 words

  • Verse 2: 40–50 words

  • Chorus: 25–35 words

  • Verse 3 (DDx): 40–50 words

  • Outro: 40–50 words
