Product Description

Multiple Choice Questions are the most common method of assessing knowledge in radiology. This book has more than 1000 questions, covering all the essential topics in Gastrointestinal Radiology. The questions have been divided into separate topics, which will enable revising the subjects on a topic basis, with due emphasis on anatomy, techniques and pathology. The questions have been designed on the format used by the Royal College of Radiologists UK, Ireland, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand. There is a single question with five stems, which require a true or false response. The answers and detailed explanations are provided at the end of each chapter. This book will be a valuable resource for review and practice prior to the Fellowship exams. Bibliographies have been provided for further reading.

Customer Reviews

Shame no option for zero stars!
I have purchased 3 of the modules (MSK, Neuro and GI) and all of them have the same problems:
There is a grammatical or spelling error in almost every question(including irritating American spellings for a book which is supposed to be for the FRCR).
The front cover states it is a question bank for FRCR - but the only similarity I can see is the stem/5Q format. The wording of some of the questions is frankly amateur and misleading.
These books appear cobbled together. They quite obviously have not been proof read (at least not by someone who speaks English).
Their only redeeming feature is the quantity of questions covering the majority of a topic.
The only worrying point is - if there are so many mistakes, how many of the answers and explanations given are wrong too?

A work in progress
A very large question bank which should be a great resource.

There is useful discussion around many of the answers BUT - and it's a very large but - there are a large number of poorly phrased questions and plenty of obvious errors and contradictory answers.

Overall it's a useful resource but very limited by mistakes that should have been ironed out with decent proof reading and corrections prior to publication. If this had been done I would have rated it 5/5 but as is I'd have rather saved my money and waited for the second edition.

(This is a very similar review to those I have written about the other books in the series I own: They all seem marred with the same problems.)
