The text also defines entry categories for drugs and clinical trials, surgical operations, laboratory tests, and diagnostic procedures, and sets preferences for possessives, abbreviations, style, and capitalization.

  \nStedman's WordWatcher has been a unique effort on the part ofthe Stedman's team.Always concerned with providing up-to-dateand accurate medical language information to medical languagespecialists,we conceived of the idea of a periodical product thatwould fill the gap between word book and dictionary revisions.Tothat end,we published eight issues of Stedman's WordWatcherbetween 1995 and 1997.  \nEach WordWatcher issue contained new generic and recentlyapproved brand name drugs and clinical trials;the newest surgicalinstruments,equipment,devices,and implants;breakthrough sur-gical operations with related anatomy and equipment;current lab-oratory tests;and emerging diagnostic procedures.Each issue wasdesigned to be a professional medical language tool,providing pre-cise,accurate,and case-correct information,with concise defini-tions","cbCaihrva2KJgU4U","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihrva2KJgU4U","pdf",34356022,806,"English","# Alphabetization\n#
