Abstract
Method and apparatus are presented for receiving a medical or medical condition related input term or phrase in a source language, and translating the term or phrase from the source language into at least one target language to obtain a set of translated terms of the input term. For each translated term in the set of translations, the method and apparatus further translate the set of translations back into the source language to obtain an output list of standard versions of the input term, scoring each entry of the output list as to probability of being the most standard version of the input term, and providing the entry of the output list that has the highest score to a user.
