For work or fun? ;)

I've never found one that's useful for work yet so I will be watching this thread carefully!

I have one called Quick MT. It's basically a dictionary and also has explanations for prefixes & suffixes, and abbreviations. Such as -algia means pain, poly- means many, MI means myocardial infarction or mitral insufficiency. (That's just a few I picked out.)

New England journal of medicine has an app with articles, and some *funky* pictures. There isn't much on it, but I'm hoping they update it.

There also these 3D anatomy apps. I have the lite version of 3 of them.

Medline University has one that you can read articles and quiz on for CE credits.

Micromedex Drug Information. I haven't used that one much because I don't deal with a lot of meds at work, but I've used it a few times if I want to know what something is for.

Gray's Anatomy. It's an encyclopedia, basically. I wanted it because it was Gray's Anatomy Lol! I think it's the lite version also.

Most of mine are apps I can learn from. I plan on starting nursing school next year so I try to pick stuff up where I can.
