Medical Terminology abbreviations are often challenging because one term can have several definitions and more than one term can stand for the same word or group of words. These flashcards feature fifteen medical terminology abbreviations starting with the letter "A."

  3. Study the abbreviations backwards by clicking on the last slide and clicking on the thumbnails to advance to the previous slides.
