Healthcare terminology references

Medical dictionaries are reference works defining terms used in medicine and healthcare—anatomy, diseases, procedures, pharmaceuticals, and clinical jargon.

They range from comprehensive professional references like Stedman's and Dorland's to simplified guides for patients trying to decode what their doctors told them.

I had to look up "bilateral" in a medical dictionary.
