Italiano Medico, which was produced in partnership with the University of Parma, is aimed at foreign students (both Erasmus and non-Erasmus students, and European and non-European students) who are studying at Italian universities or foreign professionals with a B1-B2 level of Italian who are working in Italian hospitals or universities. The way the book is organised means that it can be used in class or as part of independent learning, as the answers to the exercises are found at the back of the book.

As the name suggests, Italiano Medico focuses on specialist medical language and terminology, and is divided into ten units, which are structured as follows:

- the first two units focus on language relating to the human body and medical apparatus;

- the next three units introduce the Italian national health system, Italian hospitals and donating blood in Italy, respectively;

- the final five chapters, which are even more specific, each look focus on a different bodily systems: the digestive system, the circulatory system, the respiratory system, the urinary system and the nervous system.   

The book contains an appendix, a glossary, a sitography, transcriptions of the audio clips, answer section and accompanying audio CD.

Italiano Medico is the winner of the European Language Label, an award that “encourages new initiatives in the field of teaching and learning languages, initiatives that are original and creative, and which are able to motivate students and teachers, actively improving understanding between cultures by promoting language skills".
