Medical Language for Modern Health Care, Fourth Edition, uses a contextual learning approach to introduce medical terminology within a healthcare environment. Chapters are broken into lessons that present and define terminology through the context of anatomy and physiology, pathology, diagnostic, and therapeutic procedures as well as pharmacology. The text covers one topic at a time, offering contextual content, tables, and exercises all in one place.
Word analysis and definition tables provide a color-coded guide to word parts deconstruction, definitions, and pronunciations. Lessons are organized to present structure, function, disorders, procedures, and pharmacology. With unfolding patient case studies, students see real-life application of medical terminology through an introduction to various roles in the healthcare environment. BodyAnimat3D integrated 3D animations help students visualize the most difficult concepts, with pre- and post-assessment questions for every animation.
