This comprehensive resource is specifically tailored for candidates preparing for the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) Part 2B examination. It focuses exclusively on paediatric radiographs, making it an essential tool for those aiming to enhance their radiographic interpretation skills.

The book features an extensive collection of nearly 400 practice paediatric radiographs. Each image is carefully selected to challenge and improve the reader’s reporting abilities. Unlike general radiology texts, this book provides targeted practice in paediatric imaging, ensuring candidates are well prepared for the unique challenges posed by young patients.

The 2024 edition has undergone significant revisions, incorporating three new test sets. These additions have further enhanced the book’s value and breadth of coverage in paediatric rapid reporting. By concentrating solely on paediatric radiographs, the book addresses a critical gap in existing resources. Paediatric work is widely considered a particularly challenging component of radiology resident working and this is well addressed here by breaking down pathology in the answer descriptions. The curated collection of radiographs covers a wide spectrum of paediatric conditions, from common to rare. Each image is accompanied by concise clinical information, facilitating accurate reporting.

The book encourages systematic analysis and reporting. Readers learn to identify subtle findings, differentiate normal variants from pathology and communicate effectively in a clinical context. The content aligns closely with the FRCR 2B examination requirements. Candidates can simulate examination conditions by practising rapid reporting using the provided images.

This book is indispensable for radiology residents, paediatric radiologists and anyone preparing for the FRCR 2B examination. Its practical focus and rigorous approach ensure that readers develop the skills needed for con-fidence in paediatric radiology reporting.

In summary, Paediatric Radiology Rapid Reporting offers targeted practice, expert guidance and a wealth of paediatric radiographs – a must-have resource for all radiologists faced with paediatric cases.
