Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Joseph Brazauskas: Try an index verborum of Celsus./You will also find much medical terminology in the Elder Pliny, Scribonius Largus, and Marcellus Empiricus, though the latter two should be used with caution. The Latin translations of Avicenna may also prove useful.
