Download or read book Dictionary of Medical Laboratory Sciences written by A. D. Farr and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1991-01-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's medical laboratory worker faces the need to understand an ever-widening range of specialist subjects. The increasing tendency for these to overlap leaves both scientifically and medically qualified staff - especially new entrants to the laboratory - with the difficult task of understanding the specialist language of many specialties other than their own. Medical laboratory scientists, pathologists and medical students need to be familiar with the languages of biotechnology, cellular pathology, clinical chemistry, computing, cytology, haematology, immunology, microbiology, microscopy, statistics, and transfusion science. The contributors to this dictionary , all acknowledged experts in their respective fields, have attempted to provide a guide to the whole of this specialized spectrum of scientific activity. The Dictionary of Medical Laboratory Sciences contains nearly three and a half thousand entries, mostly defining terms in use in the laboratory but also including notes on some disease states. These disease states form a major part of clinical laboratory work. The book, published in association with the Institute of Medical Laboratory Sciences, also includes a few biographical notes on those whose names are of a particular importance in the history of medical science. The book will be an invaluable study and revision guide for all students of the medical sciences, as well as a reference source for established laboratory workers and medical secretaries

Book Synopsis The Williams Dictionary of Biomaterials by :
Download or read book The Williams Dictionary of Biomaterials written by and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a rapid expansion of activity in the area of biomaterials and related medical devices, both in scientific terms and in clinical and commercial applications. The definition of terms has failed to keep pace with the rapidity of these developments and there is considerable confusion over the terminology used in this highly multi- and inter-disciplinary area. This confusion has arisen partly from the use of inappropriate terms which already have well-defined meanings in their parent disciplines, but which are used inexpertly by those working in other disciplines, and partly from the haphazard generation of new terms for the purpose of defining new phenomena or devices. For example, many terms used in pathology with distinct, if not readily understood, meanings are used by materials scientists to describe biocompatibility phenomena with slightly changed or even wholly misrepresented meanings; similarly, terms from materials science and engineering are seriously misused by biologists and clinicians working in this field. The leading proponent of harmonization and clarity in medical device terminology, Professor D. F. Williams has been influential in setting the standard for the accurate definition of some of the terms used. In particular, the definition of biocompatibility, ‘the Williams definition’, agreed at a 1987 conference has been adopted worldwide. Now, in association with O’Donnell and Associates of Brussels, he has prepared The Williams Dictionary to provide a definitive exposition of the meaning of the terminology used in the area of biomaterials and medical devices. It includes definitions and explanations of more than 2,000 terms from many areas, including biomaterials and medical devices, materials science, biological sciences, and clinical medicine and surgery.
Book Synopsis Elsevier's Dictionary of Medicine and Biology by : G. Konstantinidis
Download or read book Elsevier's Dictionary of Medicine and Biology written by G. Konstantinidis and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-08-18 with total page 2590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dictionaries are didactic books used as consultation instruments for self-teaching. They are composed by an ordered set of linguistic units which reflects a double structure, the macrostructure which correspond to the word list and the microstructure that refers to the contents of each lemma. The great value of dictionaries nests in the fact that they establish a standard nomenclature and prevent in that way the appearance of new useless synonyms. This dictionary contains a total of about 27.500 main English entries, and over of 130.000 translations that should normally sufficiently cover all fields of life sciences. The basic criteria used to accept a word a part of the dictionary during the development period in order of importance were usage, up-to-dateness, specificity, simplicity and conceptual relationships. The dictionary meets the standards of higher education and covers all main fields of life sciences by setting its primary focus on the vastly developing fields of cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology, developmental biology, microbiology, genetics and also the fields of human anatomy, histology, pathology, physiology, zoology and botany. The fields of ecology, paleontology, systematics, evolution, biostatistics, plant physiology, plant anatomy, plant histology, biometry and lab techniques have been sufficiently covered but in a more general manner. The latest Latin international anatomical terminology "Terminologia Anatomica" or "TA" has been fully incorporated and all anatomical entries have been given their international Latin TA synonym. This dictionary will be a valuable and helpful tool for all scientists, teachers, students and generally all those that work within the fields of life sciences.
