Product Description
The 5th Edition of Stedman's Plastic Surgery, ENT & Dentistry Words, on CD-ROM now has more than 90,000 words and terms, including accurate and current terminology related to procedures, techniques, abbreviations, drugs, and tests, as well as jargon and variants. In addition to a wide range of plastic surgery, ENT, and dentistry words, look for key terminology in these specialties: aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, otorhinolarnygology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics and endodontics, NEW! liposuction, NEW! cosmetic and eyelid surgery. And because it carries the Stedman's name, you know that you can trust the content. All of the terminology has been researched and validated by experienced, knowledgeable MTs and medical editors from around the country. The new and revised terminology has been gathered from the most current and prominent sources available, including key medical journals, books from top authors, web sites, and from day-to-day transcription. The newly updated and expanded appendix section for Stedman's Plastic Surgery, ENT, and Dentistry Words, 5th Edition, includes new Anatomical Illustrations and Sample Reports.

Stedman's is the best! May 14, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Absolutely agree with the earlier review posted below. This volume was published in 1999, and an updated volume should be coming along soon, but meanwhile, this exhaustive collection of words relating especially to ears, nose, throat, and teeth is without peer. If you're an MT looking into expanding your library because you've found yours wanting, Stedman's is the place to look, and this book is a crucial part of such a library.
Best reference for plastic surgery/ENT/dentistry words July 8, 2000
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
"Plastic Surgery/ENT/Dentistry Words" is a gem of a reference for the transcriptionist doing work in any of these specialty areas. It is chock full with 69,000 entries derived from >40,000 medical words, phrases, abbreviations, and acronyms. These are conveniently cross-referenced. Who of us has not heard, for example, some kind of "flap" mumbled by the dictator while transcribing a surgical report; here, a list of >4 pages of various types of flaps are blessedly enumerated. Additionally, surgical instruments and medications are handily listed as well.Four appendixes complete this volume: 1) anatomical illustrations [54 pages of them!], 2) sample reports [op notes] ranging in variety from typical liposuction surgery to an orbiculopexy, 3) common terms of procedure [such as septoplasty terms, etc.], and 4) common herbs in both Latin and common terminology. This latter is interesting, but I am confounded as to what is its use in this volume. Nevertheless, this handy volume is really the Bible when it comes to a reference for anyone transcribing medical reports in the above-mentioned specialty areas. I recommend it highly!
