  • Title: [The uniformity of medical terms in early period: a review on the work of China Medical Missionary Association].
    Author: Zhang D.
    Journal: Zhonghua Yi Shi Za Zhi; 1994; 24(1):15-9. PubMed ID: 11615221.
    Abstract:
    Translation in medical terminology was a subject the medical missionaries encountered in China. The medical missionaries had done a lot of useful work in standardizing medical terms. Their work impelled the spread and development of Western medicine in China. It also laid a foundation for the uniformity of medical nomenclature. Unfortunately, this complex task was far beyond the reach of medical missionaries and had to leave it to those Chinese physicians who were well educated in modern medicine.
