Posted: Nov 17, 2011

Doing all orthopedics now, wondering if there are any seasoned orthopedics MTs that can refer me to some websites that you trust for terminology.  Thanks. 

Have not used it in several years, but MT-411.com used to be good for everything....nm - Cyndiee

Meant to post in the word help section.  Hopefully it gets moved.  Sorry.

I've hear ...
