The Leader in Medical Jargon

on Feb 02 in Humor tagged , by admin

Found a great site that list all the medical jargon possible.  Whether it is for medication, humor between nurses, you can find it all here.  *Little warning: as hospitals can be, this site is a bit crass.
Some good ones you can see below:

Acute Lead Poisoning – Gunshot wound
Baby catcher – obstetrician
Babygram -x-raying (radiographing) a newborn
Chocolate Hostage – constipated
Imaginascope – what you use during radiology rounds to see the lesion the clinician is showing you but you don’t see

And a ton more on the site.  Each industry has a certain jargon and the medical community tries to beat them all.
