世界卫生组织出版了一本名为《世界卫生组织西太平洋地区传统医学国际标准术语》的词典式书籍，其中共有3259个技术术语，这些术语在中国传统（TCM）、日本（汉布）、韩国（TKM）和越南（TVM）药物中常用。在这个全面的指南中，每个术语都有英语表达，原始汉字和简明的英语定义。这本书涵盖了3106个术语，包括基础理论、诊断学、疾病、包括针灸在内的各种疗法，甚至还有153个标题的英文措辞，这些标题被认为是这四个国家出版的最重要的传统医学经典。该汇编的一个突出特点是编码格式，该格式为每一节的每个类别分配以十进制为单位的数字。这种类型的编码系统为将来添加更多术语提供了灵活性，并且对于构建用于检索各种已发表的科学文章的数据库非常有用。总的来说，使用这些标准术语是非常可取的，以传达准确的含义，并最终避免在不同的东方医学科学手稿中对单个术语的各种表达。
The WHO published a dictionary-type book entitled ‘WHO International Standard Terminologies on Traditional Medicine in the Western Pacific Region’ which has a total of 3259 technical terms which have been commonly used in traditional Chinese (TCM), Japanese (Kampo), Korean (TKM) and Vietnamese (TVM) medicines. In this comprehensive guide, each term has the English expression, the original Chinese character and a concise English definition. The book covers 3106 terms from basic theories, diagnostics, diseases, various therapeutics including acupuncture and moxibustion and even the English wording of 153 titles which are considered the most important traditional medical classics published in these four countries. A prominent feature of the compilation is the codification format that assigns numbers in hundred decimal units for each category of the section. This type of coding system provides the flexibility for adding more terminologies in the future and is useful for constructing a database for the retrieval of various published scientific articles. Overall, the usage of these standard terminologies is highly desirable to deliver accurate meanings, and ultimately to avoid a variety of expressions for a single term in different scientific manuscripts on Oriental medicine.
