Description and Table of Contents
Description
The only illustrated dictionary in its field, this unique work by the world-famous team of Dr. B. John Melloni and Dr. June L. Melloni contains more than 17,000 medical abbreviations -and acronyms-compiled from today's leading medical textbooks and journals. These include Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine (McGraw Hill), The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), and The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). This unique dictionary defines and, when needed, explains all the abbreviations and acronyms commonly used in both the medical literature and the spoken language of medicine, particularly those appearing frequently in patients' medical records and in lectures to health science students. The work is expertly designed with color illustrations that not only enhance the beauty of the work but also help readers comprehend and remember the meanings of the terms defined.
