Medical Terminology
AMS-111
Dr. Mostafa Eraqi
z Medical terminology is a specialized language used by health
care practitioners.
z Every profession has a specialized language that allows for quick,
efficient
communication
between
members
of
the
same
profession while minimizing the potential for misunderstandings.
z The goal is to learn the basics of what makes up medical terms so
you can not only use and understand them yourself, but be able
to recognize and learn new terms when you come across them in
the future.
z Some medical terms:
1. Esophagus: the tube that connects your throat with your
stomach.
Esophagus comes from Greek words which mean”
swallows what we eat".
2. Fallopian tubes: They are named after a 16th century Italian
anatomist, Gabriello Fallopio.
3. Placenta: placenta means a "flat cake" in Greek, simply
describing its shape.
Eponyms
z There are two major categories of medical terms:
1. Descriptive: describing shape, color, size, function, site etc.
2. Eponyms: literally "putting a name upon". The problem with
eponyms is that they give no useful information about what is or
where to find the item named.
z Eponyms : for examples

2. Bartolommeo Eusstachii: Eustachian

z In recen

n toward replacingg eponymss
with desscriptive names.

Parts

to
o Mediical Teerms
Therre are thrree basic parts
p
to medical
m
terrms:
1. Prefix: prefix is a short wo
ord part aadded befoore a root to modifyy
its mean
ning. In this book prefixes
p
aare indicatted by a d
dash afterr
the preffix, such as pre-.
2. Word root:
r
roott is the fun
ndamentaal unit of eeach medical word.
This esttablishes the
t basic meaning
m
oof the worrd and is tthe part too
which modifying
m
prefixes and
a suffixees are add
ded.
3. Suffix: A suffix is a shortt word parrt or seriees of partss added att
the end of a root to modify
y its mean
ning. suffixxes are ind
dicated byy
a dash before
b
the suffix, succh as -itiss.

Com
mbining Forms:
F
Wheen a suffix
x beginnin
ng with a consonantt is addedd to a roott, a vowell
(usually an o) is inserrted betweeen the rooot and thhe suffix to aid inn
pron
nunciation. A combining voweel may bee added beetween a rroot and a
suffiix.
Thuss, when the suffix -lo
ogy, meaning “studyy of,” is addded to thee root neur,
mean
ning “nerv
ve or nervo
ous system,,” a combinning voweel is added::
neur + o + logy = neurolog
gy (study oof the nervvous system
m)
Rootts shown with
w a comb
bining vow
wel are callled combinning formss.
A ro
oot with a combining
c
vowel is often
o
calledd a combinning form.
In th
his text, ro
oots are given
g
with their mosst commonn combiniing vowelss
addeed after a slash and are referrred to sim
mply as roots, as in neur/o. A
comb
bining vow
wel usually
y is not useed if the ennding beginns with a vvowel. Thee
root neur is co
ombined with
w the suffix -itis, m
meaning “inflammattion of,” inn
this way:
w
neur + itiss = neuritiss (inflammaation of a nnerve)

Abbreviations:
Like symbols, abbreviations can save time, but they can also cause
confusion if they are not universally understood. Usage varies in different
institutions, and the same abbreviation may have different meanings in
different fields. An acronym is an abbreviation formed from the first letter
of each word in a phrase. Some everyday acronyms are ASAP (as soon as
possible) and ATM (automated teller machine). In computerize, RAM
stands for “random access memory.” Acronyms have become popular for
saving time and space in naming objects, organizations, and procedures.
Only the most commonly used abbreviations are given. These are listed at
the end , but a complete alphabetical list appears in abbreviation dictionary
also is helpful.
