The quintessential study prep for the gastrointestinal section on the ABR core exam
Preparing
for the American Board of Radiology core exam can be stressful and at
times overwhelming, given the magnitude of current review material. The
gastrointestinal imaging section is especially challenging because the
examinee must be well acquainted with the aging modality of fluoroscopy,
as well as much newer body MRI techniques. Gastrointestinal Imaging
Q&A for the Radiology Boards by renowned educator and radiologist
Humaira Chaudhry and esteemed colleagues Li-Hsiang Yen, Abdul-Kareem
Beidas, and John C. Sabatino, presents 100 high-yield GI cases. The
cases are organized in six sections: the liver, biliary system,
pancreas, spleen, GI tract, and peritoneum that cover the most common
pathologies, as well as more esoteric ones.
