An Introduction to Medical Terminology for Health Care is designed
to introduce medical terms to readers who have little or no prior
knowledge of the language of medicine. The latest edition of this
hugely popular volume retains its effective approach to learning
medical terminology by breaking words into their component parts
and applying knowledge through exercises and examples from patient
care. Throughout the book, information is organised into friendly,
accessible, learning modules which are presented in a helpful,
template format. Abundant fill-in exercises and helpful diagrams
also aid the process of analysing and learning medical terms. In
this latest fifth edition, Andy Hutton has brought the book
completely up-to-date by with the addition of new exercises and
more information on common pathological conditions, medical
procedures and laboratory tests. Each unit now includes a
comprehensive list of associated words that are often used in
combination with specific medical terms in patient records and
medical publications. An Introduction to Medical Terminology for
Health Care is suitable for medical secretaries and clerical staff

and allied health students, CMA (AAMA) candidates and anyone

life' context Over 120 clear images enable students to associate
