Medical and pharmaceutical translations

Medical and pharmaceutical translation is not a task for just any translator. Mastering the source language and the target language is just one of the essential requirements for impeccable performance. The chosen translator must have multiple years of experience in the field and direct knowledge of the medical and pharmaceutical sector, its specific language and technical terminology.

An extremely high level of attention and precision is required in the translation of medical texts. Text types include package leaflets for medicinal products, pharmaceutical products, patient medical records, biological tests, medical reports, technical data sheets and instruction manuals for electromedical equipment and medical devices, clinical trials, medical and scientific articles, articles in specialist journals, advertising campaigns and documentation for the marketing of a drug, commercial initiatives, as well as the localisation of user interfaces for medical equipment, platforms, software and apps.

In addition to the regular practices envisaged by the ISO certifications held by CMT, additional checks are carried out before delivery including cross-checks with terminology glossaries, checks of correct quantities in the composition of the pharmaceutical product and proper packaging layouts.

Despite there being two sets of checks, extremely quick delivery times are still guaranteed thanks to a harmonious and well-tested organisation.

Sworn translations and legalisation or apostilles from courts or notary offices can also be obtained when the documentation in the foreign language requires an official document that certifies the correspondence of the translated text with the original, or when the sworn translation must have legal value in a foreign country.

When such a high level of certification is not required, simply ask CMT for a
declaration of correspondence and quality of the translation through a certified translation.
