English in the Hospital 醫院就診用語 (1977) by Jean T. Swaim
Medical terms in Chinese and English
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Hello everyone, recently I have found a helpful booklet on medical terms in Chinese and English created by Jean T. Swaim that is sponsored by The Ladies Visiting Committee of Massachusetts General Hospital that you can read for free as a PDF on massgeneral.org here. According to the English translation of the introduction, this booklet was intended for native Chinese speakers who do not speak English and who are patients at Massachusetts General Hospital, but I am sharing it here because I believe it to be extremely useful for bilingual English and Chinese speakers who want to enter the medical interpreting and translation profession.
It's only drawback for students of the Chinese language is that it only uses Traditional characters and there is no pinyin. There could also be outdated terms due to the fact that it was last edited 48 years ago.
