--A key feature of this book is the inclusion of related terms which help readers distinguish between terms that are often confused in medicine by showing what distinguishes one term from the others and how these term inter-relate in contemporary medical usage.
--We have defined contemporary medical terms in the context of related terminology to expand the user’s awareness of both the medical term of interest and closely inter-related contemporary medical terms. In this book, contemporary medical terms are approached dynamically as we focus on causation and mechanism of action in the definition of the term. We update Contemporary Medical Terminology every month to keep our readers up to date with current medical concepts and terminology as they develop.
