Hello! I was wondering if anyone remembered an old video that was used to train medical terminology. It was in cartoon style....and it taught the breakdown of terminology.....one I remember was gastr....gastruck...stomach.
I was just wondering if anyone was trained on this.

You took a terminology course and some
No you are not worth 75,000 a year. Look up the salary for an MT honey, it's not $75,000 a year. You can think you are glorified and all that, but please get over yourself. You can be an MTSO and make that but you still have to sub out the work... Please calm down; we know you're an MT (wanna be doctor); I've come across those types before. Even x-ray techs think they are doctors. What a joke! If it walks like a duck, it's a duck, not a peacock! 
you will also need a terminology book- sm
I did oncology for a while. I did not so much need a new drug book as a terminology book. Stedman's makes a paperback oncology book that was a real lifesaver. It included the drug names, including all the chemo drugs. There were many pages of chemo drugs, and all you had to do was look up "chemotherapy" instead of trying to figure out spelling of the drug name and everything was there. Good luck.
Radiology terminology
HI Terry -
I am a former rad tech, but that was before PET scans were even invented! I picked up the terms on my own, had some help from the company I worked for as we were all learning this 'new' terminology together. Google is a great help.
If you Google "radiology terminology" you will come up with quite a few helpful sites. Find the ones you can navigate easily through the bookmark them. You can copy and paste the terms you don't know into your own document and print out for easy reference.
In addition to PET and MR, don't forget nuclear medicine, ultrasound, CT, mammography and possibly interventional radiology procedures. If you are on a good platform with an up to date medical dictionary including radiology installed, that can be invaluable.
You only have to worry about problem words once, as you will put them in your word Expander program or macro right away and you'll build speed quickly by doing so.
Good luck!
You don't need to go to school to learn terminology.
than any school could teach. No transcription school can teach you speed on a keyboard. If you have good English language usage and typing speed, start with a local physician who will allow you to type at home. Trust me. I know.
terminology test samples
I have been searching and searching and searching google, etc. to find a written terminology test to hire two inhouse transcriptionists that I will be interviewing this week. Everyone who comes in the door says they "know" transcription and they "have lots of experience" on their resume, but I find out they don't "know" transcription. I need a test that is pretty broad, that is written, and that is FREE. I can test them on digital physicians, but would really like you see how they handle a terminology test too. Been on internet for two hours now to no avail. Can someone help me? I am only interviewing for inhouse positions (2), so don't everyone flood me with requests for jobs....only inhouse.....only in Southern Indiana. Please? Thanks for your help!!!
Sorry, wrong terminology. This company
Thank you for the catch. :)
I took A&P/terminology course through my clinic 16 years ago

QAing isn't just about medical terminology. QAs have
years of experience in the MT industry & have to know the BOS inside and out, years of experience with all different accents, etc. This is no different than when nurses assume just because they know medical terminology that they can do our jobs. There's a lot more to it than that.
I learned the terminology in nursing school;
I learned the transcription end of things on the job. I was taught well by ladies with 20+ years of experience. They taught me how to do the job correctly and I now do my job well. You don't always have to go to college or take a course to learn how to this job and do it well.
What's a good source for very new medical terminology? sm
I'm wanting to avoid paying for a $95 subscription to something like The Latest Word, if possible. Is there a web site that posts new medical drugs and other terms that are so new they haven't hit the books yet?
thanks!
You could buy a medical terminology workbook or textbook. SM
Those usually have self-testing questions. Plus you could use the help of the textbook to form your own test. I know you said you wanted something free, but that sounds a little unprofessional to me and no offense, it sounds a little like laziness. You are hiring employees for your service and you want someone else to provide you with a ready made test for free because you can't be bothered with creating one on your own?
Coming here for help is one thing, but to look for a ready made test or even consider stealing a test from another service - I don't know, it just bothers me a little.
20-week med. terminology course at nite school - had a job
The rest was on-the-job training of the sink-or-swim variety.
Good psychiatrist terminology site
http://medicaltranscriptionwordhelp.googlepages.com/psychiatricterminology
It's an excellent guide
I am very real, thank you. I work quickly and efficiently. I know the terminology and when I come
across something I don't know I do my best to reference until I find it. If I absolutely cannot find it, I will send it to QA. The same goes with something I can't understand. I will listen several times and if I still can't understand it I send it on to QA for their help.
podiatry terminology - sounds like "rasmooth". Anyone know what the term is? TIA.

Addendum: As well as your fund of medical terminology knowledge.
I'm sorry that should den of lions or pack of wolves. Gotta get the terminology right!

I prefer Dorland's and consider it the "bible" of medical terminology. Others' mileage

Here is the video
http://www.safetype.com/video2.htm
Don't get the video
You pay an extra hundred for that video screen. Do you really think you are going to download and watch videos? and 7500 tunes? But the real reason besides the money is those screens are notorious for cracking and that is not covered under warranty.
I don't see any video. ???

A Must-see Video
This video is sooo sweet! Probably should have posted it on Gab board but wanted more to see it. Love is the strongest instinct after all.  If the link does not work this way, I will try another.
I wish someone would do a video
on the TRUTH about Medical Transcription!
If I was more camera-literate I would!
a video for your entertainment
http://www.microsoft.com/uk/technet/itsshowtime/sessionh.aspx?videoid=9999
I thought it was hilarious.
Great video!

But I will wait for the video (sm)
Like I always do. I think it looks really good from the previews and what I have read about it.
See MSN.com under video today

Did anyone ever have a video card go bad and what does it cause when this happens. nm

Why do we have to be subjected to video ads

Tech/video
I am posting a tech (nonwork related) question on the gab board ... any help will be appreciated!
Maybe a technical board would be another great addition to this site.  Thanks. 
It could be your video card is going bad.
Does it give you any kind of error message when it won't boot up or does it just sit there?
I know just enough to be dangerous, but it sounds like there could be a problem with the mother board.
watch the prosecutor video
The prosecutor in Atuba, I believe her name is Carin Janssen, said the father and the two boys can still be rearrested. They did not have enough to hold them but they are still part of the investigation. For any father to tell his son without a body there is no crime, how awful. You get a grip, it is so obvious the boy is involved and the two friends helped him cover it up.
I watched the prosecutor video
I watched the video with the interview with the Aruban prosecutor, which was on MSNBC videos in the internet..check it out, maybe it is still there. She said the father was arrested for interfering with an investigation by talking to the boys and telling them no body, no crime.
Net Address to Prosecutor Video
Go to MSN.com, on the left side are all categories for the news. Go down the column till you see videos (or news videos), about three quarters down page. Click on that, a box will come up with a selection of videos to watch. To the left are categories you can pick from. There is also a search box. Type in Aruba in the search box, click on the arrow and all the videos from the case come up. There prosecutor is the blonde lady, about second row of videos. There were two sessions with her. Click on the play button under the video and you will be able to watch the interview with the prosecutor.
So glad you had the video going or they would have taken your puppy. sm
Moral of the story: Don't let your puppy play with kids unsupervised. Look into puppy class/puppy kindergarten in your area. Vet's office should be able to tell you where they are. They are fantastic for socializing puppies with other dogs, kids, and adults. Just completed class with my puppy. Sad to think how many good pups have been put down due to behavior of naughty kids/adults too. So happy this worked out for you and your kids.
And that was after the guy playing a video game

I just saw the video of JonBenet's killer and
it deeply sickens me to think that this was the last face she saw before she died. May her sweet little soul rest in peace with her mother.
I didn't like it either, but when I downloaded the video
and relistened, I had to change my opinion. He sounded great. On the video, the fiddler and the background singer are less distracting and you can really hear Taylor sing.
SOUL PATROL, BABY!!!!
Where can you download the video? curious me.

Can you provide a link for this video.
I can't find any video as you're suggesting. Thx.
Home Video to computer anyone?
Does anyone know anything about transferring home videos to computer? When I got a digital camera I had to play with the program which came with the camera for a while before I got the hang of it. I now have a digital video camera and trying to get the video to the computer. I think I have a program that edits video but it asks me about a source. All I did so far is plug the camera via USB port to the computer. Oh, the camera did not come with any special program. Any ideas. Thanks.

Video - emailed senators
I have just forwarded this video and a message to my 2 senators - and would encourage everyone who reads this to do the same - and then send it to your state representatives and your local city officials.
I watched this video and sent it to my US Senator and also

viewing a WMA video file
Since I am working on Express Scribe, any E-mail I get with a video file, just goes straight to audio ... duh, I know there is an answer, but I am very IT challenged and was wondering if there was an easy fix to this one. Thanks, guys!
There were no video ads for 8 years previous

You can start very slow and not even do all of the basic video
start off every other day doing the video and on opposite days, walk one mile. I also changed my diet to high protein and low fat with lots of fruits and vegies. I lost 50 lbs starting like this and after only 2 months, I was doing the full more difficult video plus doing 5 mile hikes 2 days a week and an 8 mile hike a third day a week. It only took 4 months total to get to where I wanted. At age 36 I was looking better in a 2 piece swim suit than most 20 year olds! You CAN do it! Make your goal getting into shape, not losing weight. You'll be more successful thinking about it like that!
How to avoid hiring an American (video)
Cut and paste this link into your brower and click on the video to play it. It's kinda long but worth it....just dang is all I gotta say about that.

How not to hire an American video question - sm
I looked for that video on YouTube and couldn't find it, and was wondering if there is more info. available on its origins, who made it, when the meeting took place, etc. Hayseed - did you find it surfing on YouTube, or did someone send it to you? Was it fairly recent? Did it have a title other than "How not to hire an American?" I think we might've lost one news organization's interest in it because of the difficulty in tracking down more info. regarding it, so I'm trying to find out as much as I can.
didn't realize this video was 10 years ago
I also saw a video of Hunter Hays when he was older, and I thought it was so weird that there were two boys with the same name that both played accordian. I missed the part on the younger version that said it was an old video... still almost too cute to be true.
It sounds like your video card is getting ready to go out.
If you have an option on your monitor for taking the settings back to the factory default, I'd try that. If it continues, then I'm afraid there's a problem with the monitor itself and you may end up having to get a new one. Sorry to hear about your troubles. I've been there. It's frustrating, to say the least.
