We cover a wide range of laboratory medicine documentation on topics, interests and sub-specialties:

• Anatomic Pathology (histopathology, cytopathology, and electron microscopy);
• Clinical Microbiology (bacteriology, virology, parasitology, immunology and mycology);
• Clinical Biochemistry (instrumental analysis, enzymology, toxicology and endocrinology);
• Hematology (coagulation; blood bank and hematology).

More generally, our freelance resources have translated medical documentation (possibly related to clinical laboratory sciences) that includes: patient information and history records, clinical study reports, instruction manuals, patent applications, laboratory charts, hospital discharge summaries, general clinical laboratory documents, product specifications, prescriptions, insurance claims, and manuscripts. The foregoing are but a sampling of the wide range clinical laboratory terminology translation assignments we are prepared to handle.

Clinical Laboratory Translation Terminology Overview

Common Clinical Laboratory terminology & topics translated:

• Microbiology documents including those related to any clinical specimen, including swabs, feces, urine, blood, sputum, cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, as well as infected tissue. Also, the translation of documents concerned with cultures, suspected pathogens and biochemical tests.
• Parasitology documents including those related to specimens (faeces, blood, urine, sputum, and other samples that may also contain parasites).
• Virology documents including those related to specimens such as blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid.
• Hematology documents including those related to whole blood and blood films as well as many other specialised tests.
• Coagulation documents including those related to citrated blood samples to analyze blood clotting times and coagulation factors.
• Clinical Biochemistry documents including those related to serum or plasma. These documents include serum tests for chemicals present in blood (a wide array of substances, such as lipids, blood sugar, enzymes, and hormones).
• Toxicology mainly documents related to tests for pharmaceutical and recreational drugs (urine and blood samples).
• Immunology/Serology documents including those related to the concept of antigen-antibody interaction as a diagnostic tool. Also, documents related to the compatibility of transplanted organs.
• Immunohaematology, or Blood bank documents including those related to determining blood groups, compatibility testing on blood donors and recipients. Also documents related to the preparation of blood components, derivatives, and products for transfusion.
• Urinalysis documents including those related to urine tests for many analytes. Documents produced in clinical biochemistry labs, and where cell studies are indicated, specimen documentation emanating from cytopathology labs.
• Histopathology documents including those related to the processing of solid tissue removed from the body (biopsies) for evaluation at the microscopic level.
• Cytopathology documents including those related to examining smears of cells from all over the body (such as from the cervix) for evidence of inflammation, cancer, and other conditions.
• Electron microscopy documents including those related to the preparation of specimens and the taking of micrographs of very fine details by means of TEM and SEM.
• Genetics documents including those related to performing DNA analysis.
• Cytogenetics documents including those related to using blood and other cells to get a karyotype. Also, documents related to prenatal diagnosis (e.g. Down's syndrome) as well as in cancer.
• Surgical pathology documents including those related to the examination of organs, limbs, tumors, fetuses, and other tissues biopsied in surgery such as breast mastectomys.

Documentation typically requiring translation and cultural adaptation (i.e. localization) include:

• Multimedia Clinical Laboratory applications
• Clinical Laboratory texts, patient information documentation, reports
• User guides (instructions for use - IFU) for Clinical Laboratory staff and patients, including multimedia material such as Clinical Laboratory reference information
• Clinical Laboratory equipment instruction manuals and brochures (Clinical Laboratory devices, surgical instruments, etc.), monographs and other documentation required to meet government regulations to sell and distribute Clinical Laboratory products in foreign countries
• Clinical Laboratory software (user interface for Clinical Laboratory software and documentation)
• Clinical, toxicological, pharmacological and biological information
• Clinical Laboratory packaging labels, Clinical Laboratory questionnaires and Clinical Laboratory terminology glossaries
• Drug registration documents (e.g. summary of product characteristics (SmPC)), clinical trial reports, regulatory documents, etc.
• Patient Information Leaflets (PIL), informed consent forms, case report forms
• Clinical Laboratory news and summaries of Clinical Laboratory journals (including scientific articles on a wide range of Clinical Laboratory topics)
• Clinical Laboratory information websites (see website translation and localization)

Don't settle for anything but the best and allow us to present you in the best possible light.

The proofreading service is combined with light copy-editing: checking for grammar; improper language usage; run-on sentences; consistency issues; etc. Our objective is to improve the formatting, style and accuracy of your written material without changing the content.
