Radiology Cases for Medical Student OSCEs

Book excerpt: Radiology now forms part of the core curriculum and is assessed in the final medical OSCE. This book includes 100 radiology cases that medical students are likely to encounter in their exams. The book is primarily image based, presenting a clinical history, description of findings and discussion for each image. Critically, the images include modern techniques such as CT and MRI in addition to more traditional photography, and the book helps students recognise and interpret abnormal image findings as well as increasing their factual knowledge. This book is vital reading for final year medical students approaching their final OSCE, and also for junior doctors who need a radiology quick reference guide in clinical practice. It can also be used to supplement MRCS Picture Questions Book 1 (see below) by candidates revising for the MRCS examination.
