Although there is a vast archive in the field of Medicine today, the main language of this archive is English. Because; To follow the literature in the field of medicine, it has become necessary to have a good command of English. However, it is also important to create a large archive written in our Turkish.

It is really difficult to use Turkish correctly and effectively in the field of medicine. It requires careful and systematic work. Experts state that a person can only think clearly and in his/her native language. If it is not clear and concise in thought, it cannot be clear in expression.

This rule is valid in medical education, as in every field of education and training. Medical education provided in a language invaded by foreign words and foreign terms will be incomplete and complex. Language is both the building block and the tool of thought. Because; We wanted to translate the book we have into Turkish. This translation contains up-to-date and intense information due to the topics it covers. This work, which was introduced to our language in a short time in a newly established faculty, will fill an important gap.
