No medical student can understand or associate him or her to classroom subjects without knowing the basic concept of the terminology of the human body. Many courses of study for medical students such as, anatomy and physiology use medical terminology through the course of study, so a basic course in common medical terminology regarding the human body is essential to forming the foundation for further and deeper medical courses.
