Medical Terminology for Health Care Professionals (8th Edition) (Rice, Medical Terminology)

The proven guide to learning medical
vocabularyâ€“now offering even more opportunities to learn,
practice, and connect up-to-date vocabulary with real healthcare
clients and careers.

This comprehensive, proven text offers a
logical, simple system for learning medical vocabulary primarily by
building terms from word parts. Medical Terminology for
Health Care Professionals, 8/e first introduces medical
terminology and its essential suffixes and prefixes; then guides
students logically through each key body system, working from the
outside in, and from simple systems to complex. Additional
specialty chapters cover oncology, radiology/nuclear medicine, and
more; this edition's mental health chapter is fully revised for
DSM-5, published May 2013. Every chapter is built around a
color-coded word list showing how word parts are built, pronounced,
and defined. Most pages also contain vibrant images, including
anatomically precise drawings, authentic medical photos, and
engaging labeling activities. Updated throughout, this Eighth
Editionâ€™s new features include: Combining Forms tables with
meanings; streamlined and improved discussions of anatomy; Rule
Reminders; integrated Study and Review Exercise sections throughout
each system chapter; new case study vignettes; Practical
Application Exercises using modern EHR records; and many new
images.
