I have done general surgery, but not radiology and now I am transcribing for neurologists and neurosurgeons. Orthopedics is much harder for me. A lot of the neurology and neurosurgery is repetitive. I have a Stedman's neurology word book, but I tend to use Google more often. I did not find it too difficult at all. If you can do the nerve conduction studies and EEGs, you should not have trouble with the rest of it. I guess the part I had the most trouble with is the brain anatomy terms, but I have never failed to find what I needed.

I have a third edition(2003) I could sell you cheap ($20 including postage if you live in the continental US). The fourth edition (2006) is the latest. Just e-me if you're interested.
