Advanced Medical Terminology

Catalog description

This course will introduce word parts and abbreviations relating to pharmacology, radiography, eyes/ears, endocrine system, integumentary, oncology, psychiatry/mental health, history/physical examination, and surgery. Word building and defining medical terms, recalling abbreviations and eponyms, spelling, diagnostic procedures, medical conditions, and pronunciation regarding all body systems will also be emphasized. Since this is a continuation of HLTH 110, concepts from that class will be revisited often.
