In September 2009, the format of the written Radiology FRCR Part 2A
examinations changed. The previous negatively-marked true-false
MCQs have become obsolete, replaced by 'single best answer'
(SBA)questions, with candidates selecting 1 of 5 options, without
negative marking. The author team have themselves recently
successfully sat the FRCR exam, and have prior experience in the
SBA format, making them ideally suited to write such a book, and
have produced an excellent revision guide for the new format exam.
There are 750 stem questions covering all 6 modules, including a
separate section with a 75 questions-per-module 'mock' examination
which readers can use to test themselves against the clock, under
examination conditions, to hone their technique. The questions have
been extensively researched and cross-checked, with relevant topics
being drawn from major radiology textbooks, as well as current
radiological journals such as Clinical Radiology and Radiographics.
Answers are given with detailed explanations and references are
provided, which can also be used for further reading as
appropriate. As a bonus the authors pass on their own proven exam
tips and techniques. Key Points - Authors recently sat exams
themselves - Over 700 questions
Basic knowledge of radiology is essential for medical students
regardless of the specialty they plan to enter. Hospital patients
increasingly undergo some form of imaging, ranging from plain film
through to CT and MRI. As technologies and techniques advance and
radiology grows in scope, medical school curricula are reflecting
its increased importance. This book provides a mixture of
case-based teaching, structured questions, and self-assessment
techniques relevant to the evolving modern curriculum. It covers
critical areas including knowledge of when to investigate a
patient, which modality best answers a specific clinical question
and how to interpret chest and abdominal x-rays. Along with final
year medical students, this book will also benefit postgraduate FY1
and FY2 junior doctors and those in the earlier clinical years who
wish to expland their radiology knowledge. It also provides a
useful basic radiology primer for the early MRCP and MRCS
examinations. 'It is a great honour to be asked to provide a
foreword for this excellent and unusual text. There is an eminently
practical range of topics covered in this book and this reflects
the commonsense approach by the authors. The images are good and
the explanatory text educationally valuable and very much to the
point.' - From the Foreword by Professor Adrian K. Dixon
