This book will educate and prepare neurosurgery candidates who are
preparing for the Neurosurgery Oral Board exam, the final step
prior to board certification. It will also serve as a primer for
the Goodman oral board course, a bi-annual course sponsored by the
AANS. The book begins by initially describing the format of the
oral board exam in the US. It then examines some of the concepts
and techniques in the question-answer process that forms the major
premise of the oral board exam. Each chapter contains 4-5 case
presentations, which are organized similarly to how oral board
questions are presented, with a brief history / physical and
relevant imaging studies. The authors provide detailed analysis of
these cases, as well as key references for each case with the
salient conclusions from each referenced paper. While there are a
few books that cover the board exams, none of them are specifically
designed as case-based resources for oral board exam preparation.
Goodman's Neurosurgery Oral Board Review focuses specifically on
the oral board exam. Its primary intended audience is US, Canadian
and British neurosurgeons who are preparing for the oral board, but
it will also be a very appropriate resource for those who are
trying to maintain competence in neurosurgery. Dr. Levi's edited
text is authored by a group of long-standing, dedicated members to
the course who have taught it for the last 15 years. With their
extensive experience in teaching for the board exams, the skillset
they bring to this book is unrivaled.
