FRCR 2A Course: A Comprehensive Review for Radiologists
Course Description:
The FRCR (Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists) 2A examination is a critical component of the FRCR examination process. This course is designed to provide a comprehensive review of the essential physics and radiology concepts required for success in the FRCR 2A examination. The course covers key topics such as image interpretation, anatomy, physiology, pathology, and physics. This course is suitable for radiologists who are preparing for the FRCR 2A examination or those who wish to refresh their knowledge of these essential concepts.
HISTORY:
A series of bodies has represented practitioners of radiological medicine in the UK, starting in 1897 with the foundation of the Roentgen Society (named for the physicist Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen). Subsequently, the British Association of Radiologists was founded in 1934. In 1935 The Society of Radiotherapists of Great Britain and Ireland was set up for doctors specialising in the treatment of cancers using X-rays and radium.
Fellowship of Royal College of Radiologist Examinations
Candidates are examined against the Specialty Training Curriculum for Clinical Radiology. The specialty trainees are expected to complete their First FRCR examination before progressing to ST2. During their ST3 training year they are expected to pass the Final FRCR Part A examination, and must complete this before progressing to ST4. During ST4, trainees are expected to pass the Final FRCR Part B examination.
Final FRCR Part A examination
The Final FRCR Part A examination comprises single best answers, split into two separate papers for the purposes of delivery. Each paper contains 120 questions and examining candidates on all aspects of clinical radiology and the basic sciences of physics, anatomy and techniques.
The main areas examined are:
1. Cardiothoracic and Vascular
2. Musculoskeletal and Trauma
3. Gastro-intestinal
4. Genito-urinary, Adrenal, Obstetrics & Gynaecology and Breast
5. Paediatric
6. Central Nervous and Head & Neck
