Why do lab results need to be translated?
Lab results are among the most personal and important medical documents. They contain crucial information about your state of health. If you want to use these documents abroad, you face a challenge: medical terms, abbreviations and units are used differently around the world.
These situations require translated lab results:
- Studying abroad or work & travel: For visas or access to medical care
- Medical treatment abroad: So that doctors abroad can understand your medical history
- Insurance claims: For submission to foreign health insurance companies or insurers
- Official requirements: For residence permits, visa applications or work permits
- International second opinions: To obtain diagnoses from specialists in other countries
- Chronic illnesses when travelling: To ensure rapid access to appropriate medical care in an emergency
- Foreign employers: For occupational health checks or health certificates
Did you know? An incorrectly translated unit of measurement or misinterpreted lab value can lead to serious medical misjudgements. That is why it is essential that your lab results are processed by medical specialist translators who are familiar with both linguistic and technical specifics.
Specifics of translating lab reports
Translating lab results requires particular expertise. Our medical specialist translators pay attention to the following aspects:
| Element | Specifics when translating |
|---|---|
| Medical terminology | Precise translation of diagnoses, parameter names and technical terms |
| Units and reference ranges | Correct conversion between different unit systems (e.g. mg/dL vs. mmol/L) |
| Abbreviations | Professional transfer of medical abbreviations into the target language |
| Layout and structure | Preservation of the original structure for optimal comparability |
| Limit and normal values | Accurate translation and, if necessary, notes on international differences |
Good to know: In many countries, different reference ranges and units are used. Our translators are aware of these differences and ensure that the information is transferred correctly so that no misunderstandings arise.
