Medical translation

Medical translations for individuals, companies, and institutions 

MT Translation Agency provides medical translations for private individuals, healthcare institutions, pharmaceutical companies, researchers, and public and private organizations. We translate formal documents and materials used for educational, informational, and communication purposes. 

We most frequently translate the following types of medical documents: 

• health books – personal medical booklets used to record vaccinations, treatments, and routine check-ups 
• vaccination records – documentation of administered vaccines, required for travel, education, or employment abroad 
• prescriptions – physician-issued medication orders needed for international travel, treatment continuation, or pharmaceutical correspondence 
• medical certificates – documents confirming health status, often required by employers, schools, or insurance providers 
• hospital discharge summaries – comprehensive reports summarizing hospital treatment, diagnosis, and follow-up instructions 
• medical diagnoses – formal medical opinions detailing conditions or diseases identified by healthcare professionals 
• specialist consultations – written opinions issued by medical specialists for second opinions, referrals, or ongoing care 
• scientific publications – peer-reviewed articles, clinical studies, or medical papers intended for academic or scientific dissemination 
• blood test results – diagnostic laboratory reports including morphology, biochemistry, hormones, or infectious disease markers 
• treatment histories – chronological summaries of medical procedures, treatments, and therapies received 
• outpatient test results – results from ambulatory diagnostic tests such as X-rays, ultrasounds, ECGs, or MRIs 
• patient records – internal documentation maintained by clinics or hospitals regarding ongoing or past medical care 
• referrals – official documents authorizing a patient to consult a specialist or receive specific medical tests 
• medical reports – general or specialized medical summaries issued for legal, occupational, insurance, or personal use 

Each translation is prepared with careful attention to the original document’s structure, function, and the needs of its recipients. Regardless of the target language, we maintain terminological consistency, compliance with current medical standards and regulations, and ensure clarity and accuracy of the content. 

Why are professional medical translations essential? 

Accuracy in medical translation has a direct impact on patient health and safety. Even minor errors in translating medical instructions, test results, procedural descriptions, or dosage information may lead to misunderstandings or incorrect therapeutic decisions, and in extreme cases pose a serious risk to life. Translations prepared by individuals without medical experience often contain subtle but critical errors with real clinical consequences. Linguistic proficiency must go hand in hand with knowledge of medical context, documentation systems, terminology, abbreviations, and local practices. 

At MT Translation Agency, all medical texts are handled by experts with both linguistic training and healthcare knowledge. This allows us to deliver high-quality translations that are stylistically sound, legally compliant, and rigorously reviewed for accuracy, considering the specifics of the destination country and healthcare system. 

Specialized medical translations 

Medical translation requires an understanding of the terminology and context in which a document functions. MT Translation Agency delivers language services across various fields of medicine and pharmacy. We assign translators based on subject matter and target audience to ensure that the final text is accurate and appropriate. We consider the content’s structure, purpose, and degree of specialization. Whether the text is a clinical report, procedural description, educational material, or patient information leaflet, we apply the highest standards of precision and linguistic transparency. Every translation undergoes an additional expert review to ensure consistency and reliability, even in the most complex cases. 

Translations of diagnostic test results 

We translate diagnostic documents such as blood tests, ultrasound, X-ray, MRI, CT scans, ECG, and other lab and imaging test results. Each document is translated according to the structure, terminology, and format used in the destination country to ensure full clarity and usability. Our goal is to provide a translation that is a faithful reflection of the original and practical for clinical use. The translation is reviewed by our experts in collaboration with consultants experienced in clinical diagnostics. 

Translations of scientific publications 

We translate medical publications, scientific articles, and conference materials for national and international publication. Each translation is adapted to the specific requirements of the publisher or event, following the style, structure, and conventions of the relevant academic field. We manage footnotes, references, charts, citation styles, and medical terminology with diligence. The result is a linguistically accurate text that meets the expectations of the scientific community and increases the likelihood of publication.
