This EDiR guide has a practical rather than a theoretical focus and is intended as a reference
tool for potential EDiR candidates who would like to gain a better understanding of the EDiR
examination. A pool of experts has made every possible effort to create a single source that
contains everything needed to successfully pass the EDiR examination. Times have changed and
there is certainly a new generation of radiologists who will find this cutting-edge tool a
must-have to familiarize themselves with the examination quickly and easily. The book is
divided into the following main sections: one chapter for each subspecialty one chapter on
Safety Management and Imaging Procedures another on Principles of Imaging Techniques and
Processing and lastly one on Management. This structure follows the same pattern as the EDiR
examination which is based on the European Training Curriculum (ETC) for Radiology released by
the European Society of Radiology (ESR). Each subspecialty is covered using the same basic
structure: Multiple Response Questions (MRQs) Short Cases (SCs) and CORE Cases from one of the
most recent EDiR examinations. Students will thus be able to see all the questions from a
recent examination and learn from the answers and comments provided by our pool of experts.
Clinical cases as electronic supplementary material complete the book and links to EDiR
preparation sessions are also included allowing students to improve their knowledge of
specific areas.
