Description
Co-written by the author of the best-seller "An Aid to the MRCP Short Cases" this new, systematically organized text concentrates on examples that are frequently examined in the MRCP Part 2 written examination - saving candidates time during revision and enabling them to concentrate on weaker specialities. By the inclusion of good quality images and the labelling of abnormal findings on the original images, the authors enable the reader to feel confident about recognizing specific radiological abnormalities instead of guessing where the abnormality lies. In order to avoid guessing, the reader is asked to describe the radiological findings in each case. In the Question section each page is dedicated to an X-ray and sample questions. An Answer section, with further radiographs to highlight variations and details, is given at the end of the book to provide background knowledge.This text is modelled on the MIRCP exam format. It is a companion to "An Aid to the MRCP Short Cases". It is divided into eight system-based sections, each reviewed by a specialist. It includes a guide to radiological interpretation.
Many answers include extra images to show variations or differential diagnoses as well as a list of radiological abnormalities and and image with markers/arrows to identify them.

Reviews / Votes
"This book is very easy and very pleasurable to read. It addresses favourite MRCP questions and the answers that are given are very well explained and additional relevant information is offered. As a result this book gives an all-round approach to the cases under discussion and does not concentrate solely on the radiological aspects." Cambridge Medicine"...The images are incredibly clear and sharp and the layout is really useful as it is set out in two sections; questions and answers...Definitely a book to go on the recommended list!" Black Bag - Bristol Medical School Gazette/2000"...this book is to be strongly recommended" Postgraduate Medical JournalMore details
