Abstract
Medical terminology for students of the health professions offers a systematic approach to explaining terminology that entry-level students of the medical and dental health care and veterinary professions often find difficult to comprehend.
The focus of this book is on terms and study text with clinical relevance that are commonly used in health and veterinary sciences practice, and includes exercises to further facilitate students’ comprehension of medical terminology.
This book has six sections. The first contains an introductory chapter, followed by eight vocabulary chapters in section II, and six chapters on systems of the body in section III. In this edition, a new chapter is included (in section IV) on veterinary science terminology for students of that profession. Section V deals with medical and veterinary terms in context. Section VI contains lists of eponyms, term parts (with both their English and Afrikaans meanings), abbreviations (used in pharmaceutical prescriptions) as well as a comprehensive word list of medical and veterinary terms.
This book is designed in such a way that students who study this text over a period of 15 weeks will be well equipped to analyse and understand almost any term used in the medical and dental health care and veterinary professions
