The medical students' guide to medical terminology:"The medical students' guide to medical terminology
Medicine is a strange business. On the one hand, people are always emphasising the importance of communication. On the other, the terms that are used are so opaque and cloaked in euphemisms that it takes a good few years to actually understand what is being said to you. Knowing what people are really talking about can save you a whole heap of trouble."
