Medical Terminology Flashcards: What Are They?

Medical Terminology Flashcards are interactive educational cards used to study words and expressions commonly used in the medical field.

Alternate Names:

• Medical Terminology Flash Card;
• Medical Terminology Index Card.

Whether you are preparing for an examination on a particular subject or compiling the words and phrases you should know to describe various body parts, medical procedures, illnesses, and treatment options, these cards will help you optimize your learning process and memorize all the expressions you will use in your medical career.

You can check out our library below to see a full list of Medical Terminology Flashcard templates.

Divide the cards into different categories - illnesses, injuries, tests and procedures, medical equipment and devices, informal terms doctors and nurses utilize regularly, etc. You can put small stickers on the cards to know which category every Medical Terminology Flashcard belongs to or mark the paper with crayons. You have to also pay attention to the way medical terms are structured - the way the word is spelled out will hint at its correct interpretation which is why learning Greek and Latin roots should be a part of the card box.

It is a good idea to make separate cards for common acronyms and abbreviations. You need to remember how to decipher those letters and also explain what they mean - consider making two sets of cards for this purpose. Note that it will be useful to shuffle the cards quite often so that you are not used to a certain order of reciting material. Feature small illustrations and images that will help you to identify what is depicted on the flashcard - this will be particularly important when you are learning the anatomy of a human being or ways to treat a specific condition.
