Medical Terminology Simplified: A Programmed Learning Approach by Body System

Medical Terminology Simplified and Medical Language Lab work together to create an immersive, multimedia experience that tracks your progress until you’ve mastered the language of medicine. The sixth edition of Medical Terminology Simplified helps you build a medical vocabulary frame by frame as you explore each body system through the major combining forms, a comprehensive pathology section, and medical records and evaluations, complemented by true-to-life artwork. “Word Elements” tables, accompanied by exercises, develop the ability to recognize word parts and build new terms. “Medical Record Activities” feature case studies and critical-thinking exercises that illustrate how terminology is used in the real world and include activities for patient diagnosis and evaluation. A free bookmark lets students cover the answers on the page as they respond to each question. Section Reviews reinforce what students have learned; assess their mastery; and identify areas for additional study. Full-colour illustrations depict human anatomy, physiology, pathology, and medical treatments to make their associated medical terms easy to understand.
