Users of EMBASE.com, the web-based abstracts service covering the global biomedical and pharmacological published literature, now have seamless access to definitions from Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary. This recent EMBASE.com enhancement provides links from EMTREE Thesaurus drug and disease terms directly to Dorland's definitions.
While searching EMBASE.com, users can now easily find more information on specific terms and gain better understanding of concepts through the connection to Dorland's. For example a user looking for records relating to terms such as "cholestatic hepatitis" within the thesaurus will now automatically find a corresponding definition within the search results.
"This new feature, a logical combination of two powerful biomedical information tools produced by Elsevier, provides searchers with a more customer-focused service," says Lisette Cleyndert, Senior Product Manager, EMBASE.com. "Linking these 'scope notes' to thesaurus terms will be particularly useful for graduate and medical students, as well as for more advanced researchers and clinicians in academic, corporate and government settings. Feedback from the market has already been extremely positive."
Access to content from Dorland's is available to EMBASE.com licensed institutions at no additional fee.
