Acronym Unpacker
Intelligent medical abbreviation disambiguation tool that resolves ambiguous acronyms using clinical context, specialty-specific knowledge, and document-level semantic analysis.
Features
- Context-Aware Disambiguation: Uses clinical specialty to rank expansions
- Semantic Analysis: Analyzes surrounding text for contextual clues
- Frequency-Based Ranking: Prioritizes common usage patterns
- Multi-Specialty Support: Covers medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and research
- Batch Processing: Expand acronyms in entire documents
- Learning System: Improves accuracy with usage feedback
Usage
Basic Usage
# Expand single acronym
python scripts/main.py PID
# Expand with context
python scripts/main.py MI --context cardiology
# List known acronyms
python scripts/main.py --listParameters
| Parameter | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
acronym | str | None | Yes | Acronym to expand |
--context, -c | str | general | No | Clinical context (e.g., cardiology, gynecology) |
--list, -l | flag | False | No | List known acronyms |
Advanced Usage
# Disambiguate with specific context
python scripts/main.py PID --context gynecology
# Check all available acronyms
python scripts/main.py --listSupported Acronyms
| Acronym | General | Cardiology | Gynecology | Immunology |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PID | Pelvic Inflammatory Disease | - | Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (90%) | Primary Immunodeficiency (95%) |
| MI | Myocardial Infarction (70%) | Myocardial Infarction (95%) | - | - |
| COPD | Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease | - | - | - |
| HTN | Hypertension | Hypertension | - | - |
| DM | Diabetes Mellitus (90%) | - | - | - |

Prerequisites
python scripts/main.py --helpEvaluation Criteria
Success Metrics
- [ ] Successfully expands known acronyms
- [ ] Context-aware ranking works correctly
- [ ] Confidence scores are meaningful
- [ ] Handles unknown acronyms gracefully
Test Cases

Limitations
- Database Size: Limited to pre-configured acronyms
- Context Detection: Requires manual context specification
- Language: English acronyms only
- Medical Focus: Optimized for medical terminology
💡 Tip: When in doubt about the context, try multiple contexts to see which expansion makes the most sense in your specific use case.
