Tips on Looking Up a Word or Phrase

In the search box, type the word or phrase you are looking for and click the "Go" button.

Click the radio button in front of the word "Contains" when you want to find all terms in the dictionary that include a word or set of letters. For example, if you type "lung" and select "Contains," the search will find terms such as "small cell lung cancer" as well as "lung cancer."

You can also click on a letter of the alphabet to browse through the dictionary.

The search box has an autosuggest feature. When you type three or more letters, a list of up to 10 suggestions will pop up below the box. Click on a suggestion with your mouse or use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move through the suggestions and then hit the Enter key to choose one.

Using the Escape key or clicking "close" within the autosuggest box closes the box and turns off the feature until you start a new search.
