AI Quality Assurance for Translations

Quality Assurance of AI-Assisted Translations in the Biomedical Sector

AI translation tools have revolutionised the industry, but in the biomedical field even small errors can have serious consequences. My AI-assisted translation quality assurance service bridges the gap between speed and medical precision.

What I Offer

  • Expert review of AI-generated translations of medical and pharmaceutical texts by a PhD biochemist with extensive translation experience
  • Terminology verification – ensuring correct use of medical terminology according to established nomenclatures (ICD, MeSH, SNOMED CT, EMA guidelines)
  • Contextual validation – detecting subtle meaning shifts, false collocations, and contextually inappropriate translations that AI systems often miss
  • Culturally sensitive adaptation – adjusting for target-language conventions in medical and regulatory communication
  • Data verification – checking figures, dosages, units of measurement, and statistical data in AI-translated documents

Suitable For

  • Clinical trial protocols and study plans
  • Patient information sheets and consent forms
  • Regulatory submission documents and medical writing
  • Scientific manuscripts and abstract submissions
  • Medical device descriptions and instructions for use
  • Pharmacovigilance reports and safety data

My Approach

I combine meticulous proofreading with domain-specific expertise. Every AI-generated translation is checked sentence by sentence against the source text, with particular attention to terminological accuracy, scientific plausibility, and idiomatic correctness in English.

As a native English speaker with a German scientific background, I am uniquely qualified to catch the characteristic errors AI systems make when translating complex German biomedical texts into English.

Pricing

AI translation quality assurance is charged at an hourly rate of EUR 40. Time required depends on the volume and complexity of the text. A 15-20 page manuscript typically takes 2-4 hours. I am happy to provide a no-obligation quote.
