Medical Terminology: Why do medical students need to know Latin words? with linguist Andrea Duarte
Manage episode 350750600 series 3329888

Why do medical professionals and students learn Latinate terms today and where do they come from? What guidelines exist to instruct medical doctors on when to say "heart attack" versus "myocardial infarction"?
