As a highly specialized job, medical translation requires extremely high professionalism, accuracy and rigor. Due to the particularity of the medical field, any minor error may lead to serious consequences. Since its establishment, Artlangs Translation has been focusing on providing professional translation services in the medical field. Next, Artlangs Translation will share some matters that need special attention when translating medical documents.

　　1. Ensure the accuracy of the translation

　　In medical translation, accuracy is crucial. Even errors in the position of numbers or decimal points can lead to miscommunication of information. For example, incorrect translation of drug dosage or incorrect decimal point position may lead to medication errors, which in turn affect the health of patients. Because the correct use of drugs can save lives, while incorrect use may have serious consequences. Therefore, one of the core principles of medical translation is to ensure the accuracy of the translated content and try to avoid any potential errors.

　　2. Accurate use of professional terms

　　Medical documents are full of a large number of professional terms, each of which has its own specific definition and meaning. When translating, standards must be strictly followed and cannot be replaced at will. When encountering unfamiliar professional terms, translators should make decisions after verification and confirmation. If you guess or mistranslate, it may lead to miscommunication or misleading information, which will affect the accuracy of medical decision-making.

　　3. Avoid literal translation

　　In medical translation, literal translation is often not suitable for expressing precise medical concepts. Medical translation needs to be combined with professional background to ensure that the translated expression conforms to actual medical terms and industry norms, rather than simply literal translation.
