Abstract: Standardization of medical terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine is helpful not only for precise expression, but also for convenient communication and understanding. Term- and scope differences in Medicial Terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Technical Terms for Clinical Diagnosis and Treatment of Traditional Chinese Medicine result in confusions in writing, reviewing and editing academic papers in this field. Based on his clinical and editing experiences, the author summarized terms that are the same in meaning but in different form in the two books, and provided suggestions for selecting standardized terms.

Key words: Traditional Chinese Medicine, terms, standardization, term selecting difference
