Deciphering Medspeak from the Medical Library Association
To make informed health decisions, you have probably read a newspaper or magazine article, tuned into a radio or television program, or searched the Internet to find answers to health questions. If so, you have probably encountered “medspeak,” the specialized language of health professionals. The Medical Library Association developed “Deciphering Medspeak” to help translate common “medspeak” terms:
Three guides available:
+ Rx Riddles Solved! (a prescription shorthand guide)
+ Top Ten Most Useful Medical Web Sites
NOTE: These brochures also available in Spanish.
