Abstract

This article describes the activity of the "Medical termonology practical committee (MTPC) of Korean Medical Association (KMA).
In 2001, MTPC of KMA published the 4th edition of "English-Korean, Korean-English Medical terminology" which contains about 5,000 medical terms.
The MTPC will continue reviewing the vocabularies. Obsolete terms will be discarded, new terms will be added, and the remainder will be revised by through-going revision of vocabulary.
Our aim is to reflect the current usage of medical terms in the form of easily understandable Korean terms.
