This book follows closely the syllabus for the MRCS (AFRCS in Edinburgh) diploma. It contains 200 MCQs with 1,000 specific questions covering the whole syllabus. The questions are grouped in the same fashion as in the syllabus to facilitate self-assessment prior to the MCQ and viva examination. Candidates who are successful in the MCQ examinations will be examined in a viva voce examination covering all aspects of surgery and a clinical examination. This part of the examination is designed to assess the ability of the candidate to apply their knowledge. It is essential to understand the questions asked and hence what is required. A chapter on viva techniques and approaches to standard types of questions is included. Foreword by David Ralphs, Member of the Court of Examiners of the Royal College of Surgeons, England.

Product Description

Over recent years the MRCS viva examination has increasingly made use of radiological imaging to facilitate the discussion of anatomy relevant to surgical practice. It is rare for junior doctors to receive adequate exposure to radiology in their day-to-day surgical practice, which makes preparation for this part of the examination difficult. For many, examinations are stressful. The last thing a candidate needs is to be faced with unfamiliar radiological images. This review of surgically relevant radiological imaging aims to prevent initial uncertainties and will allow candidates to discuss relevant anatomy and score valuable points. An invaluable addition to any revision plan, this title also: • highlights typical anatomy viva questions • familiarizes candidates with a range of images of differing modalities (plain film, fluoroscopy, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) • introduces different planes of imaging, enabling candidates to deal with unusual coronal or sagittal views with confidence • gives concise but detailed notes for quick consultation.

Product Description

This book gives a synoptic description of the practical details of how to carry out the common procedures in imaging on which an examination candidate will be expected to be familiar.

Product Description

The viva component of the MRCS examination is traditionally the most feared and elusive part of the whole exam. Contained within the syllabus of core and system modules there are favourite examination topics which are more commonly asked than others. This new book covers all these popular subjects and illustrates them with sample viva-style questions. The answers give the candidate guidance on how to respond to these effectively and on what is required to pass the exam.

This new book has been written to aid any candidate in preparing to sit a surgical viva, and will be of value to MRCS candidates as well as students for undergraduate surgical finals and surgical registrars prior to the exit examination.
