A variety of pedagogical features‫ يٍضاد أو تشثىٌخ‬help them develop a solid foundation ٍٍ‫أعبط يت‬ in medical terminology to broaden ‫ تىعٍغ‬their medical vocabulary. ‫يفشداتهى انطجٍخ‬ Medical Terminology Definition: Is a science that deals ‫ ٌتؼبيم‬with the proper use ‫االعتخذاو‬ ‫ انصحٍح‬of medical terms. It is accurately describing the human body and associated components ‫يحتىٌبته‬, conditions,‫ ظشوف‬processes ‫ ػًهٍبد‬and procedures in a science-based manner. ًً‫ثأعهىة ػه‬ Basic Elements of a Medical Word: The language of medicine is a specialized vocabulary used by health care practitioners. Many current medical word elements originated as early as the 1st century B.C., when Hippocrates practiced medicine. With advancements in medicine, new terms have evolved to reflect these innovations. For example, radiographic terms, such as Magnetic Resonance 1 ‫) يصطهحبد غجٍخ‬1( ‫ يحبظشح‬2/ ً‫ انفصم انذساع‬/‫ انًشحهخ االونى‬/ ‫جبيؼخ انجٍبٌ –كهٍخ انتًشٌط‬ ‫ سحٍى ػطٍخ ثذس‬.‫د‬ 2022-2024 ‫ انغُخ انذساعٍخ‬Medical terminology Imaging (MRI) and ultrasound (US), are now used to describe current diagnostic procedures. This is called (Abbreviations). Abbreviations ‫األختصبس‬: Is a shorthand way to record long and complex medical terms. Example: AIDS: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.  Medical Word Elements (Word parts) are: ‫عناصز الكلمة الطبية‬ 1. Word Roots: ‫جذر أو أصل الكلمة‬ A word root is the foundation of a medical term and contains its primary meaning. All medical terms have at least one word root. Most word roots are derived ٍ‫يشتمخ ي‬from Greek or Latin language. Thus, two different roots may have the same meaning. For example, the Greek word dermatos and the Latin word cutane both refer to the skin. Word roots : Terms standing alone but that may have aprefix added to them Examples: Natal : pertaining to the birth. Table (1) : examples of word roots English Term Greek or Word Root Word Analysis Latin Term* skin dermatos dermat dermat/itis (d˘er-m˘a- (Gr) TI-tıs): inflammation of the skin 2 ‫) يصطهحبد غجٍخ‬1( ‫ يحبظشح‬2/ ً‫ انفصم انذساع‬/‫ انًشحهخ االونى‬/ ‫جبيؼخ انجٍبٌ –كهٍخ انتًشٌط‬ ‫ سحٍى ػطٍخ ثذس‬.‫د‬ 2022-2024 ‫ انغُخ انذساعٍخ‬Medical terminology A term that describes a skin disease cutane cutane/ous (sub-ko-TA- ne-˘us): cutis (L) pertaining to the skin A term that describes an anatomical structure kidney nephros (Gr) Nephr nephr/oma (ne˘-FRO - bma˘): tumor of the kidney A term that describes a renes (L) ren kidney Disease ren/al (RE-nal): pertains to the kidney A term that describes an anatomical structure 2. combining form: ‫إظبفخ حشف ػهخ انى آخش جزس أو أصم انكهًخ‬ A combining form is created when a word root is combined with a vowel. The vowel, known as a combining vowel, is usually an o, but sometimes it is (an i. ) The combining vowel has no meaning of its own, 3 ‫) يصطهحبد غجٍخ‬1( ‫ يحبظشح‬2/ ً‫ انفصم انذساع‬/‫ انًشحهخ االونى‬/ ‫جبيؼخ انجٍبٌ –كهٍخ انتًشٌط‬ ‫ سحٍى ػطٍخ ثذس‬.‫د‬ 2022-2024 ‫ انغُخ انذساعٍخ‬Medical terminology but enables two word elements to be connected. Like the word root, the combining form is the basic foundation to which other word elements are added to build a complete medical word. A combining form: that usually but not always indicate the part of the body that is involved. Table (2): Examples of Combining Forms Word Root Vowel Combining Meaning Form erythr/ + o = erythr/o red gastr/ + o = gastr/o stomach hepat/ + o = hepat/o liver immun/ + o = immune, immunity, safe immun/o nephr/ + o = nephr/o kidney oste/ + o = oste/o bone 3. Suffixes: ‫اللواحق‬ A suffix is a word element placed at the end of a word that changes the meaning of the word. In the terms tonsill/itis, and tonsill/ectomy, the suffixes are -itis (inflammation) and –ectomy (excision, removal). Changing the suffix changes the meaning of the word. In medical terminology, a suffix usually describes a pathology (disease or 4 ‫) يصطهحبد غجٍخ‬1( ‫ يحبظشح‬2/ ً‫ انفصم انذساع‬/‫ انًشحهخ االونى‬/ ‫جبيؼخ انجٍبٌ –كهٍخ انتًشٌط‬ ‫ سحٍى ػطٍخ ثذس‬.‫د‬ 2022-2024 ‫ انغُخ انذساعٍخ‬Medical terminology abnormality), symptom, surgical or diagnostic procedure, or part of speech. Many suffixes are derived from Greek or Latin words. Table (3) : Examples of Suffixes Combining Suffix Medical Word Meaning Form gastr/o + -itis = gastritis inflammation of (stomach) (inflammation) the stomach gastr/o + megaly = enlargement of the (stomach) (enlargement) gastromegaly stomach gastr/o + -oma = gastroma tumor of the (stomach) (tumor) stomach hepat/o + -itis = hepatitis inflammation of the (liver (inflammation) liver hepat/o + -megaly = enlargement of the (liver) (enlargement) hepatomegaly liver hepat/o + oma = hepatoma tumor of the liver (liver) (tumor) 4. prefixes: ‫البادئات‬ A prefix is a word element attached to the beginning of a word or word root. However, not all medical terms have a prefix. Adding or changing a prefix changes the meaning of the word. The prefix usually indicates a number, time, position, direction, or negation.
