English Medical and Technical Translation by Specialist Linguists

Medical records for treatment abroad and in Georgia

Georgian patients seeking treatment in the US, UK or Germany's English-speaking clinics need their epicrisis (discharge summary), imaging reports, histology, lab results and vaccination records translated into English so that the receiving specialist can read the history before the first consultation. Expats treated in Georgian hospitals - Aversi, Evex, Caucasus Medical Centre, Todua Clinic, Bokhua Centre and others - need the reverse: Georgian epicrises and invoices translated into English for insurers, employers and home doctors. Our medical translators are practicing or former physicians and pharmacists. They keep ICD-10 codes, drug names in INN form, dosages and units exactly as written, and never "improve" a diagnosis. Medical translations can be certified or notarized depending on whether the recipient is a doctor or an insurance company.

Clinical trials, pharmaceutical registration and medical devices

Georgia is an active site for international clinical trials, and sponsors and CROs need the full regulatory package in Georgian for the ethics committee and the regulator: protocol and synopsis, patient information sheets and informed consent forms, investigator brochures, case report forms and patient diaries. Informed consent forms in particular must be translated at a reading level ordinary patients understand, then back-translated into English for verification, which we provide as a separate step. For pharmaceutical registration we translate summaries of product characteristics, package leaflets and certificates of pharmaceutical product, and for medical devices the instructions for use, declarations of conformity and technical files.

Operation manuals, datasheets and HSE documentation

Equipment imported into Georgia from English-speaking manufacturers - construction machinery, medical devices, HVAC systems, industrial lines, agricultural equipment - arrives with English manuals that Georgian operators, safety inspectors and customs may require in Georgian. We translate operation and maintenance manuals, quick-start guides, datasheets and safety data sheets, keeping figures, part numbers and warning symbols intact, and we deliver in the original layout from InDesign, FrameMaker or Word so the manual can be printed immediately. For energy, mining and construction projects we translate HSE policies, method statements, risk assessments, permit-to-work systems and toolbox talk materials into Georgian for local crews, and incident reports back into English for head office.

Patents, standards and ISO certificates

Patent applications entering Georgia through Sakpatenti require Georgian translations of the description, claims and abstract, drafted in patent language where a single mistranslated claim can narrow protection. Our patent translators work with engineers in the relevant field and follow the terminology of existing Georgian patents in the same class. ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 certificates, audit reports and quality manuals are translated for tenders, for foreign customers auditing Georgian suppliers and for certification bodies. National and international standards, test reports and calibration certificates are translated for laboratories and regulators.

AutoCAD drawings, product catalogs and technical proposals

Engineering drawings carry text in title blocks, notes, legends and callouts that must be translated without disturbing the drawing itself. We work inside AutoCAD DWG and DXF files, in Revit exports and in PDF plan sets, replacing the text layer while preserving layers and dimensions, and we deliver a bilingual drawing set when both crews need it. Product catalogs, spec sheets and technical proposals for tenders are translated with the same attention to units, tolerances and material grades, and laid out in your design files so the sales team can send them out the same day. Our technical team includes civil, mechanical and electrical engineers who review terminology before delivery.

Quality control for medical and technical texts

A wrong dosage or a wrong torque value is not a stylistic problem, so medical and technical work follows a stricter process than general translation. Every file passes through translation by a subject specialist, a full bilingual review by a second specialist, and a final numerical check in which units, decimal separators, drug strengths, part numbers and reference ranges are compared line by line against the source. Where the source itself contains an error, which happens in handwritten Georgian medical records and in older manuals, we flag it rather than silently correct it. Terminology is locked in a project glossary agreed with your engineers or clinicians before the bulk of the work starts, and for recurring clients that glossary grows into a translation memory that keeps a 2024 manual consistent with its 2026 revision. On request we provide a certificate of accuracy for regulators and a signed translator statement for insurers and courts, and all of this can be notarized for Georgian authorities.

Medical files are handled under the same NDA as legal files, and patient records are anonymized in our systems wherever the receiving institution allows it.
