Abstract
This is a streamlined dictionary compiled by a medical secretary and supervisor specifically for medical record librarians and medical secretaries who need to know only enough of the meaning of a term to transcribe it correctly and to avoid confusing similar or like-sounding terms. The definitions are not crowded, the type is easy to read, the pages are not tissue-thin, and the book can be manipulated with one hand—a boon to the hurried secretary or record librarian. The 3,500 entries include word roots, anatomical terms, medications, laboratory tests, and instruments. Special features are a list of irregular words often misunderstood or confused in transcribing dictation, a list of commonly used instruments, and a short list of books of interest to the doctor's aide.
