What is Yottalook Worldwide?
Yottalook Worldwide allows you to search radiology images from English radiology journals and medical journal articles in 33 different languages.
How does it work?
We are using Google Language API to provide translations of search term queries. When you type in a search term in one of 33 different languages supported, Google Language API translates the search string into English. This then gets sent to our Yottalook Images or Journals engine and the results are shown. Once translated, the search terms undergo same query expansion as Yottalook in English.

How do I type in a foreign language?
If you are using windows, go to: Control Panel → Open Regional and Language Options → Under "Keyboards and Languages" tab, click on "Change keyboards..." button → Click on "Add..." button to add keyboard layout in different languages. Once installed, you will now see "EN" in your bottom right task bar. Click on it and choose your new input language. Also see: HOW TO: Use the Language Bar in Windows XP
How do I use this engine?
You can type your search term in one of the 33 supported languages in the search box then select your language from the drop-down menu. Once you click on search, your query term(s) will be translated into English and search results will be shown. Your language preference will be saved for each online session. Once in the results page, you can search either in the language you selected previously or in English as the search box will understand both. For French, Portuguese and Spanish, we have implemented additional features. Look for the
button; when you mouse over it, you will see translations of the caption appear (please give it a second or so to perform the translation).
We hope you will find this new interface useful.
