Anatomy for the Royal College of Radiologists Fellowship


Book Description

Designed to support candidates through the training scheme of bodies such as the Royal College of Radiologists, this text focuses on the aspects of anatomy that are most relevant to the achievement of Fellowship status. The text itself is arranged in a manner to encourage learning and an understanding of the key concepts rather than just provide a vehicle to pass the exams. Each chapter consists of a series of questions typical of those found on the fellowship exams, and the images and diagrams that accompany each question provide a stimulus to the concepts being challenged, whilst the answers also contain explanations that in many instances go beyond that strictly necessary to support the answer, including examination tips. Part of Series in Physics and Engineering in Medicine and Biology.




Scientific Basis of the Royal College of Radiologists Fellowship


Book Description

Knowledge of scientific principles is also mandated as a result of a need to understand best and safest practice, especially in the use of ionising radiation where legislation, guidance and risk all form part of a medical specialists' pressures at work. It is no surprise therefore that radiologists are obliged to study and pass physics exams. Such exams can present a considerable challenge and the authors of this work recognise and sympathise with that challenge and have created a volume which that is intended to be an educational resource and not just a pre-exam 'crammer.' Both authors have considerable experience in teaching, supporting and examining in medical science and have developed an awareness of where those sitting professional exams have traditionally struggled. This text is a distillation of that experience.
