Radiology Resources
General
- R-ITI Modules - created by the RCR, these modules are generally pretty good across a wide range of topics, though can be a bit slow and unexciting.
- PENRA Courses - you should have an account for this, Ross and a few others are trying to build a large case set covering a wide range of topics.
- MRI Online - Lots of good videos on a range of topics. While lots of the content requires yo to pay, there are plenty of good videos that are available for free, particularly their Noon Conferences.
Exams
Radiology Cafe has a really good section on this, but some local suggestions:
This website is a local godsend - Ross' Question Bank
Anatomy:
- e-Anatomy - the academy should provide you with an account for this, good as a resource to refer to.
- Question sets - there are massive banks of example questions floating round. The Radiology Cafe mock exams are a good place to start, but there are lots more generally a bit harder sets on the academy learnmat drive.

On-Call
Practice is key for preparing for on-call - do the on-call case sessions, get reporting IP scans, and cover the phones with support - but to make sure you've covered a good breadth of pathology it is worth looking at a few learning resources. A few suggestions below.
Books:
- On Call Radiology by Gareth Lewis et al. - Covers all the common presentations with a brief summary of what to look for and how to vet - a couple of PDF copies are floating around. Worth aread prior to starting on-call.
Reference Websites (no surprises here):
Case Sets
There are lots of good sets of cases on PACS around the region for on-call cases, some particularly good ones include:
- On-call cases (JLOOKER) - found on Plymouth PACS : a really good set of on-call cases covering more or less all the common serious presentations.
- Acute Abdominal Imaging (MSTRUGNELL) - on Truro PACS : a massive set of acute abdominal presentations complete with codes showing if the diagnosis was confirmed with pathology/at surgery.
Sub-Speciality
Neuroradiology
- Osbourn's Brain - The gold standard reference text book. Good but massive and expensive.
Videos:
- BSNR Webinars - if there is one thing I'd recommend it is these lectures, really good quality and comprehensive coverage of neuro without being over long.
Head and Neck
- Learn Head and Neck - a website with pages covering head and neck anatomy and case banks covering major on-call presentations. Really good for the basics.
- Diagnostic Imaging: Head and Neck - the gold standard reference textbook for head and neck. Good, but massive and expensive.
- H&N Pocket Guides - A collection of posters covering a bunch of major head and neck pathology.
