Medical translation is one of the most present - and least investigated – activities in the professional environment. The singularity of the field makes it necessary to create specific documentary resources appropriate for medical translators and writers. Thus, it is advisable to analyze the expectations that this professional community has with regard to the use of documentary sources. This article presents and discusses the results of a survey designed by the Gentt Research Group and administered to medical translators in Spain. Finally, several lines of research are proposed on the basis of such resultsDownloads
