Linguistic Validation

Translated medical content must preserve both the meaning and intent of the original documents, and enable an accurate assessment of data.

Our linguistic validation methodology includes back translations, usability and readability testing, and cognitive debriefing. Our reviewers are required to have an education and experiential background in the specific scientific discipline at issue, including an M.A. or above in the relevant field. Our methodologies conform to ISPOR and EORTC guidelines. Reviewers are also qualified and selected based on each client’s specific needs and requirements.
