Preface
This book is intended primarily for specialist registrars in
clinical radiology who are sitting the first examination for the
Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists. The multiple
choice questions have been specifically arranged as practice
papers, and have been written to reflect the number and style
of the questions in the part one examination.
Anyone else who uses ionising radiation in their work will profit
from studying this book, such as radiographers, nuclear physicians,
and cardiologists.
Our aim is to help you pass the examination by testing your
knowledge of the examination syllabus which covers the physics
and regulations governing ionising radiation. This book will aid
you greatly in refining your technique in answering negatively
marked multiple choice questions as well as alerting you to
areas of your knowledge that require further study. We hope
the detailed answers will act as useful revision notes.
Good Luck!
