Understanding Medical Terminology: Eponyms, Acronyms, and Word Parts

Eponyms. The word 'eponym' is derived from the Greek words 'epi' (upon) + 'onyma' (name). It literally means "to put your name on something." Thus, an eponym is a word formed by including the name of the person who discovered or invented whatever is being described. Sometimes, in the case of diseases, an eponym is named in honor of the disease’s first or most noteworthy diagnosed victim.

Acronyms. The word 'acronym' is derived from the Greek words 'acro' (high, end) + 'onyma' (name). It literally means "to make a name with the ends." Thus, an acronym is a word made up of the first letters of each of the words that make up a phrase. One example is the diagnostic imaging process...
