Transcription tips and techniques are scattered all throughout
the course in the appropriate place to help you learn the real
world of transcription, not just transcription in theory.
IMPORTANT: We teach medical transcription according
to the AAMT/ADHI Book of Style. This style guide is 100% necessary
for you to know to obtain employment with the national services.
You can purchase the style guide yourself or through our online
store. (See below.)
Laboratory & Pathology – included

types of lab tests, urine tests, blood tests, sputum tests,
common laboratory tests and values, pathology overview, epithelial
tissue, connective tissue, osseous and cartilaginous tissue,
blood and muscle tissue, nerve tissue, skin biopsies, weights
and measurements, laboratory and pathology abbreviations, and
more.
Blood & Lymphatics – included is
combining forms for blood and lymphatics, the blood system,
basic anatomy of blood , normal physiology of blood, the lymphatic
system, basic anatomy of lymphatics, normal physiology of the
lymphatic system, diseases, conditions, disorders, and dysfunctions

Pharmacology - Learn about drug terminology,
different drug types, drug laws, drug classifications, sound-alike
drugs, drug dosages and schedules, methods of administration,
abbreviations for pharmacology.
Surgical Techniques - Learn about all types
of surgical techniques and operations for each body system.
Not only will you learn the most common surgeries, you'll also
get a peek inside an operative room that teaches you procedures
like these from start to finish. Learn the instruments as well
as the prepping and draping that occurs just before surgery.
Then learn different types of incisions and sutures. You can
polish that newly learned information by transcribing thousands
of minutes of surgical notes. This skill alone will help you
become eligible to work practically anywhere - clinic or hospital
- as a medical transcriptionist.
Diseases Processes – included with each
medical specialty is detailed information about the disease
processes involved with that particular specialty. Take an in-depth
look at the weaknesses or that particular specialty, specific
diseases, typical disorders of that specialty, and more.
Diagnostic Testing - We cover in depth all
the major diagnostic tests done within each specialty . With
photos and in-depth articles, you learn what each test does
and what it means. This includes laboratory and pathology testing
as well as radiology and other diagnostic testing. Learn what
it means, how the tests are performed and what the results show.
