This book takes account of recent changes in the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) Part 2A examination. It includes basic radiological science questions as well as the original clinical imaging component, and in particular it discusses cross sectional imaging at an advanced level. Many of these questions are also very useful in preparation for the American Boards Exam in Radiology. Unlike other books in this field, this essential guide provides full explanatory answers and bibliography. Questions are divided into subject chapters corresponding to those in the current FRCR Part 2A syllabus, and structured in an identical fashion to the actual exam.
Recent advances in functional neuroimaging have greatly enhanced our understanding of brain functionality through the ability to visualize brain processes at work. Brain Imaging in Epilepsy provides an overview of the techniques that have been developed, including positron emission tomography (PET), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Relevant features of the basic neuroscience of epilepsy are reviewed, and the application of these techniques in diagnosing, treating and developing new treatments for epilepsy is discussed. This book will prove fascinating to a large audience from practicing neurologists and radiologists, to junior doctors and students of medicine, neuroscience and medical physics.
There are very few radiology multiple choice question books on the market that reflect the current trends and developments in the field of imaging. Hence, the emphasis of this book is on cross-sectional CT and MR imaging. It highlights the current understanding and concepts in the state-of-the-art imaging of a wide range of diseases in the body. The multiple choice questions are organised according to body systems and imaging modalities. There are twelve sections in the book, testing the reader in a broad range of imaging knowledge. The questions are accompanied by expanded answers, which provide the reader with a summary of the key facts relating to a particular topic. This is especially useful in assisting the reader in consolidating his or her understanding of the subject. The questions are devised in a format similar to those encountered in the Part 2A examination of the Royal College of Radiologists (UK) and the Part 2 examinations of the Joint Australian and New Zealand College of Radiology. Candidates taking the American Radiology Board examinations will also find the book informative.

An excellent stand-alone reference book, which will assist the busy neurologist to quickly find essential information, and with sufficient depth to take well informed decisions in clinical practice. The book addresses one of the most prevalent neurological disorders: the epilepsies. The classification of the epilepsies and epileptic seizures as accepted by the International League Against Epilepsy is presented by a prominent member of the responsible commission. After an overview of the epidemiology, the basic mechanisms of epileptogenesis are discussed. In a handbook the emphasis is on aspects of differental diagnosis, auxiliary diagnostic procedures and treatment. As one of the problems th...

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 negativemarking. 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 agains...
