I am writing an eHow article on translating medical terms
from English into Spanish for medical practitioners and am
wondering if anyone could recommend good
dictionaries/glossaries for this purpose, both online and as
hard copy. I'd welcome your suggestions as well as any
additional info you can provide on those resources! Thanks
in advance! (If you don't want your name mentioned in the
article, please state so in your post.)

Stedman Bilingue Oct 18, 2010

I have found the Stedman Bilingue Diccionario de Ciencias Medicas (Ingles - Espanol; Espanol - Ingles) to be quite good, although not perfect.

It is fairly comprehensive although it won't always have the term you are looking for.

I would use this along with other good dictionaries when translating the English - Spanish combination.
