French term

bilan biologique

French to English Medical Medical (general)
Dear colleagues:

Does anyone have a good translation for bilan biologique as used in medical reports?

I have been using "laboratory parameters" generally unless there is a specific reason to refer to these as biological or biochemical parameters; that is, the levels and values established in the clinical laboratory using blood, urine, tissue.

Thanks very much for your inputs!

Harold

Jul 29, 2006 15:06: Flo in London changed "Level" from "Non-PRO" to "PRO"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (3): df49f (X), Dr Sue Levy (X), Flo in London

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

biological evaluation

I believe that "bilan" in medical terminology means **evaluation**. But my level of confidence is low since I'm not an expert in this field. I suggest you wait for confirmation or a more appropriate response.
