English-Chinese medical dictionary
Written by ForeignExchange Translations on Monday, March 15, 2010
Here is an excellent but under-publicized resource: Esaurus.org maintains an English/Chinese medical dictionary.
The basic terminology list is not huge but that's actually a good thing. It's possible to refer to the site quickly, without wading through tons of similar terms. I also like the "annexes" for terminology related to drugs, medical specialties, medical facilities, and chemical elements.
The site is a bit hard to use - there are tons of Google ads and text cannot be copied-and-pasted. Nonetheless, because the content is good, Esaurus.org is a worthwhile addition to your tool kit.
