Beiks has announced a major upgrade to its MedicineNet Pocket Medical Encyclopedia for Palm OS handheld devices. The reference guide now includes more than 15,000 entries of medical terms, written and compiled entirely by U.S. board certified physicians. The Pocket Medical Encyclopedia includes not only standard medical terms but also pertinent scientific items, abbreviations, acronyms, jargon, institutions, projects, symptoms, syndromes, eponyms, and medical history.
The MedicineNet Pocket Medical Encyclopedia comes equipped with the latest version of Beiks’ award-winning BDicty Dictionary Reader, which has been upgraded with improved navigation features and advanced data compression to significantly decrease the size of the data while increasing the number of entries available in the encyclopedia. The result is a 50% increase in content with a 40% decrease in handheld memory requirements.
