Hello, everyone.  I'd like to ask your help again.  I'm looking for a website that provides a list of medical terms and their layman equivalents.  I do NOT want it to provide definitions, nor that you have to search for the term--a static list would be best.

Example:
Cerebrovascular Accident : Stroke
Hematoma : Bruise
Neoplasm : Tumor

Does anyone know such a resource?  I spent a while on Google last night, & the only interesting thing I found was a Vulcan glossary of medical terms http://home.teleport.com/~vli/vlif.htm (not helpful for my topic, but neat anyway).

Thank you, I will summarize for the list.

Take care,

Tanya
