About the Course

This online self-study course teaches essential written and verbal skills to health professionals. Numerous exercises to practice the terminology and many colour diagrams help learners visualize the body structures and conditions. The medical terminology language is tied together using case studies, examples of operative and diagnostic reports, laboratory results and x-ray reports.

The textbook also includes a CD-ROM (or access to a website, depending on the edition) that provides additional information, images, video and audio clips to further help learners understand the medical terminology and pronunciation of relevant words for each chapter.


Outcomes

Upon successful completion of the course, learners will have the necessary written and verbal skills to succeed in their chosen medical profession.
