Austrin begins teaching medical terminology by providing a foundation in the first four chapters. These chapters teach the word parts used to build medical terms and explain how to combine them into terms. Then, the remaining fourteen chapters present medical terminology as it relates to the various body systems. Austrin provides more anatomy coverage than any of our books and as much or more than its most direct competitors: Chabner, Fremgen, and Rice. Austrin's related terms listings - located at the ends of the body systems chapters - include anatomic terms, pathologic conditions, surgical procedures, and laboratory tests with their pronunciations and definitions. The assumption seems to be that students will remember the meanings of the word parts used to build the terms from their study of the first four foundation chapters. For the ninth edition, we have renamed (formerly called glossaries) and redesigned these sections - now called related terms - and moved them earlier in the chapter, so that their importance is more obvious.
