Medical Translation Requires Accuracy

Medical translations are broadly classified in different branches of medicine, pharmacology, chemistry, biotechnology, toxicology, biochemistry. Any medical translation requires a perfect understanding of the target language, good linguistic and grammar skills, but also a good knowledge of medical terminology that appears in the texts to be translated.
When choosing a good translation agency, we have to keep in mind that professional medical translations must be done by professional translators who are specialized in this field. Translation AZ has been set up with the desire to offer medical translation services by gaining the trust of our clients and being one of the most prestigious translation companies. The translation of medical documents requires the utmost care because in certain medical situations a correct translation can literally be a matter of life or death.

Competent Medical Translations Save Lives

Every piece of information in a medical document is important. A missed, substituted or added word can have negative effects and can put people’s lives at risk.

Improper medical translations can lead to:

• Wrong diagnostic that can cause inappropriate treatment;
• Unexpected side effects that medication has on a person because its composition is translated in a wrong manner and it`s different from what’s written on the label;
• Patients who don’t understand the information and thus refuse treatment
• Death, when doctors can’t understand the gravity of a patient’s symptoms

A good translation agency for medical translations must be able to:

  • Have doctors who do (or at least revise) translations;
  • Have a long experience in the field;
  • Have a portfolio of clients in the field;
  • Be able to perform a test translation if the customer asks for it;

Over the years, the number of medical specialties has increased and is still developing. Medicine is constantly evolving. There are modern inventions in the medical field, new treatments and drugs and new possibilities for disease prevention and treatment. Considering all these aspects, we can say that only doctors or translators specialized in medical translations, with vast medical experience, can carry out specialized medical translations.

Examples of usual medical translations services:

*Clinical studies, medical reports, web pages, scientific articles;
*Prospectus of medicinal products, specialized products, medical questionnaires;
*Articles on laboratory technology, pharmacological studies;
*Leaflets, presentations with medical products;
*Medical prescriptions, hospital discharge or exit tickets;
*Results of laboratory tests;
*Correspondence between doctors and between doctors and patients;
*Medical assessments
*Medical reports

Things to consider regarding medical translations

  • If the document is for a patient, the translator must avoid abbreviations as much as possible, or in any case, decipher them and present them in their meaning.
  • Abbreviations, acronyms, medical terms are not a problem for doctors (who understand their meaning perfectly), but patients also want to understand the medical documentation they want to translate.
  • Medical documentation must be translated so that it suits perfectly the professional level.
