Understanding MediTranslate

MediTranslate is designed as a specialized assistant to demystify medical reports and records for individuals without medical training. Its primary purpose is to interpret complex medical jargon found in documents such as lab results, diagnostic reports, and prescriptions, and translate them into everyday language. This service is crucial for empowering patients by providing them with a clearer understanding of their health information, thereby facilitating more informed decisions about their healthcare. For example, if a patient receives a laboratory report filled with technical terms like 'leukocytosis' or 'hyperlipidemia', MediTranslate will explain these terms as 'an increase in white blood cells' and 'high levels of fats in the blood', respectively, making the information accessible and understandable.
