The service principles of medical translation are reflected in its rigorous and highly specialized requirements. Whether it is consultation interpretation, medical research conferences or the translation of various medical literature materials, the rigorous and highly specialized requirements of the industry itself make translation more difficult and require higher professionalism. So what are the principles of medical translation? How to choose a professional medical translation company?

 

The principle of medical translation service is to ensure professionalism and accuracy, especially when dealing with various medical literature materials, especially those involving experimental data and medical logic. The following are a few principles to pay attention to:

 

1. Faithfulness and accuracy:


Medical translation must accurately convey the meaning of the original text, especially when it comes to medical terms, experimental data and logical reasoning, the translation should maintain a high degree of accuracy and avoid any translation errors that may lead to misunderstandings.

 

2. Scientific rigor:


Since medicine is a rigorous discipline, translation must maintain scientific rigor. This means that the translation should accurately reflect medical knowledge, principles and requirements, use appropriate terms and grammatical structures, and ensure the logic and scientificity of the translation.

 

3. Formal style:

 

Medical literature is usually formal and academic in nature, so the translation should maintain the corresponding formal style and avoid inappropriate colloquial or informal expressions to ensure the professionalism and credibility of the translation.

 

When choosing a medical translation company, you should pay attention to the following aspects:

 

1. Check the translation qualifications: Professional translation companies are usually members of the China Translators Association and hold relevant qualification certificates. For example, Artlangs Translation has passed many international-level certifications and is a dual-certified member of the China Translators Association and the American Translators Association, with an extensive professional database.

 

2. Understand the company's translator team: Excellent translation companies are usually equipped with full-time translators, and the strength of the team is directly related to the number of full-time translators. Artlangs's global translator team consists of members who have returned from studying abroad, graduate students and doctoral students from key universities, and senior experts and professors, covering more than 230 languages.

 

3. Examine the translation experience: Experience is particularly important when choosing medical translation services. Companies with rich experience can quickly and accurately understand the needs and provide professional advice, while having more extensive resources and network support.

 

4. Understand the scope of business: Choose a translation company that can provide various forms of services, such as document translation, interpretation, video translation, etc., and has the ability to respond quickly to meet possible emergency needs. Artlangs Translation services include written translation, interpretation, multimedia translation, etc., and have long focused on translation services in the fields of medicine and life sciences.

 

5. Understand the translation process: High-quality translations are not only related to the level of the translator, but also closely related to the rigorous quality control process. Artlangs Translation has strict service guarantee plans before, during and after translation to ensure high-quality translation output, and signs a confidentiality agreement in each process step.

 

The above is Artlangs Translation's introduction to the principles of medical translation and how to choose a translation company. In short, when choosing a translation company, in addition to considering its qualifications and team strength, you also need to pay attention to its professional field experience, service scope and quality assurance measures to ensure smooth cooperation and meet needs.
