List of medical abbreviations

Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medical_abbreviations

.

Abbreviations are used very frequently in medicine. They boost efficiency
as long as they are used intelligently. The advantages of brevity should
be weighed against the possibilities of crypticness (making the
communication harder for others to understand) and ambiguity (having more
than one possible interpretation). Certain medical abbreviations are
avoided to prevent mistakes, according to best practices (and in some
cases regulatory requirements); these are flagged in the list of
abbreviations used in medical prescriptions.
