Remembering Medical Terminology; I decided I will be displaying these medical terms with definitions. Medical Terminology is very useful and very important to Medical striving students. I remember taking Human Biology in high school and having to memorize many vocabulary words. My teacher ( I will not reveal his name) said that repetition of these terms is a crucial fundamental task of being able to pass his class. Looking back, I would say that he was right. Practicing and ingraining those terms into my mind helped me pass his class with an excellent "A".
Below are some Medical Terms/roots/prefixes/suffixes:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- cardi = heart
- peri = around
- itis = inflammation
- aden/o = gland
- carcin/o = cancer
If you are interested try memorizing these terms by repetition. I will be posting more soon.
