Medical terminology
Medical terminology broadly defines the language used to discuss anatomy, medical conditions, diseases, and disorders, medical processes and procedures, and therapeutics. Typically, medical terminology is learned by deciphering three basic parts of a word: 1) the prefix, 2) the word root, and 3) the suffix.
