RMstudents Technology meets medical education

http://lane.stanford.edu/bassett/index.html

Most med students use Microsoft Word or OpenOffice.org or some other office suite to complete assignments and SOAP notes at Rush.  Since we often end up writing tons of scientific and medical jargon, a completed document usually ends up with all sorts of red squiggles on it, indicating misspellings.  The problem is that these terms usually aren't misspelled.  Your office suite just doesn't have a valid medical dictionary installed. Luckily, a company called e-MedTools makes a good medical dictionary that's updated annually with the newest terms.

OpenOffice.org users

Users of OpenOffice.org can download the OpenMedSpel extension for free to give them a fully functional medical dictionary.  People who are using Microsoft Word can purchase a copy of MedSpel from e-MedTools.  This will give you the exact same functionality in MS Word.  If you're not too keen on ponying up $20, there's actually a way you can add this feature to your office suite for free.  It just involves a few simple steps. Read More »
