This is an alphabetized list of medical terminology
and phrases. This not a complete listing of course—just a sampling. Some
examples of medical abbreviations, diseases, syndromes, etc., are also sprinkled
throughout the list. BooksForMTs provides this list in part so that those who are
thinking of becoming a medical transcriptionist may see firsthand some of the terminology
and phraseology used by MTs in their daily work. For those already performing medical
transcription, the list is a good reference source. We have also complimented the
medical terminology list with a text version for copying and adding to your medical
spell-checking feature in your word processor if you wish.
