This is the only guide you need to pass the MRCS Part B OSCE examination. Packed with essential exam tips, and filled with comprehensive revision notes on the areas covered in the exam, the book also features practice scenarios with model answers in the exam format. Written by an editor and author team with extensive experience, it helps the reader through the difficult topics that can often trip up candidates, like communication and history-taking skills.
Volume 2 addresses the stations that exam the four speciality areas: Trunk and Torso; Limbs and Spine; Head and Neck, and Neuroscience. It covers the anatomy, physiology and pathology in each of these four speciality areas along with detailed clinical exam scenarios and a bank of likely clinical questions and model answers. The text is complemented by various illustrations and photographs, making it the most complete revision text around.
