very helpful
I do orthopedic reports daily and this is very helpful to me.I would recommend it to transcriptionists.

Words, not definitions
The use of the Stedman's word books, this being only one of many, is primarily for those in medical transcription and others (medical authors, editors, proofreaders, etc.) who need an authoritative source on correct spelling and terminology.This is the stated intent of these books, as is clearly spelled out in the foreword of all Stedman's books.This seems important for me to mention here, as at least one reviewer of this book seemed disappointed that there isn't more information.

As a transcriptionist, I assure you that the several hundred pages of cross-referenced terms here are very, very useful in correct transcription of medical dictation.This section includes musculoskeletal terms and rehab terms, which are exactly its stated contents.As usual, Stedman's succeeds beautifully in providing an exhaustive collection of terms relating to the areas of interest presented in this book.

Index was helpful...
The book itself is only a listing of words that you
may encounter in the field, not really any definition or
reference to other places that would help more.But the index is worth its part.Some good references to injuries that you
may see in the rehab field.

Great book

Excerpt: Podiatry is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and lower leg. A student podiatrist treats the foot of a patient at a homeless shelter in Homestead, Florida.The term "podiatry" came into use first in the early 20th century United States where it now denotes a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM), also known as a podiatric physician or surgeon who is qualified by their education and training to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the foot, ankle and related structures of the leg. Within the field of podiatry, practitioners can focus on many different specialty areas, including surgery, sports medicine, biomechanics, geriatrics, pediatrics, orthopedics or primary care. Podiatry is also practiced in other countries such as Canada, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Malta, Cyprus, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In many English-speaking countries, the older title of "chiropodist" may still be used by some clinicians but is gradually falling out of use. In many non-English-speaking countries of Europe, the title used instead of podiatrist may be "podologist" or" "Podólogo" . The level and scope of practice may vary in these countries as compared in the US. The professional care of feet was in existence in ancient Egypt as evidenced by bas-relief carvings at the entrance to Ankmahor's tomb dating from about 2400 BC where work on hands and feet is depicted. Corns and calluses were described by Hippocrates who recognised the need to physically reduce hard skin, followed by removal of the cause. He invented skin scrapers for this purpose and these were the original scalpels. Aulus Cornelius Celsus, a Roman scientist and philosopher, wa...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=594086 ... Read more
