Question
which of the following is not a true statement?
○ most medical terminology varies from hospital to hospital
○ most medical terms are derived from greek and latin
○ spelling is an important part of medical terms
○ medical terminology ultimately benefits the patient
Medical terminology has a standardized set of terms. It is not something that varies from hospital to hospital. Spelling is crucial in medical terms (e.g., misspelling could lead to wrong medication). Most medical terms are derived from Greek and Latin (e.g., "cardio -" from Greek for heart). And the ultimate goal of using medical terminology correctly is to benefit the patient (e.g., accurate diagnosis and treatment).
