Neurologic Examination Clips...





NeuroExam.com is an interactive online guide to neurologic examination with video demonstrations (77 Clips, all are free). I think it is very useful to both under- and post-graduate students.

Your Development Resource!




Since 2 years, i've been visitng the MRCP website "Your Development Resource". I think it is a very useful website; and I think that it was the first website that offered FREE BOFs for MRCP ( about 250 in 2004, a number that is considered to be BIG at that time!). Now it has BOFs for part I and II (total no. is 314), and a book for PACES.
I'm sure this website will grow bigger and bigger, and will be of more and more benefit to the future MRCP candidates.
Best wishes to the owner and bof editor of that website.

The God Father of Neurology...R. D. Adams

Dr. Raymond Adams standing at a podium, in the midst of one of the many lectures he gave during his time at the Massachusetts General Hospital.


Everyone interested in neurology must know those 2 genius people; they are Raymond D. Adams (right) and C. Miller Fisher (left).
Professor Adams is my inspirer, and his book (principles of neurology, with Victor) is my favorite book.
Thanks to this great man.

Impossible to be an efficient neurologist without reading this book. It is my mentor for many years, during my board study journey.
A new take on the classic, definitive text on the full spectrum of neurology. Reflecting a modern approach to neurology, Adams and Victor’s Principles of Neurology, 8/e new format highlights a more complete and accessible approaches to treatment and clinical management strategies. This thoroughly revised edition features more coverage of treatment and neuroimaging, renown signs and symptoms sections integrated throughout, and over 800 illustrations.

Adult Internal Medicine Self-Assessment, an Excellent Book!



After finishing reading this book for the second time, i think that the future MRCP and MRCPI candidates should read this excellent book. Nearly 1,000 case-based problems make review easy and enjoyable, whether you're studying for the board, recertifying , or just looking for a convenient way to make sure your patient-care skills stay sharp (this is mainly for the ABIM, but I think it is also suitable for any postgraduate clinical study including MRCP UK and MRCP Irleand diploma) .
  • Comprehensive. An extensive library of questions covers all of adult internal medicine, plus Psychiatry, Neurology, Dermatology, and more. And each question presents commonly encountered cases, diagnostic and therapeutic options, and in-depth reasoning and explanations on the recommended choices. Covers all the major areas of practice you need to review to score well on the exam.
  • Trustworthy. Questions are derived from the respected ACP Medicine CME program. For further reading, the problems are referenced to ACP Medicine, a continually updated, evidence-based reference of adult internal medicine. The cases are reviewed by experts in clinical practice from our editorial board at the nation's leading medical institutions.
  • Relevant. Case-based for greater relevance to daily practice—the format selected for many of the questions on recent exams. These self-assessment questions provide easy-to-understand, detailed explanations of the principles behind the answers—an ideal way to get ready for the boards or recertification.
  • Print or Electronic Formats. Our problem series can be ordered in traditional print or convenient new e-book formats.
You may see a PDF SAMPLE here.

Thanks to the ACP and MedScape.

Another website that is trying to provide free useful tips and clues for PACES is the PassPaces ; we think that it is useful, although it has some controversies and its discussion is somewhat long.

MRCP UK PACES and MRCPI General Medical Clinical Examination!



We had received many Emails asking us to add a clinical examination section. Although we have many pics and video clips (mainly in neurology, featuring difficult cases) and we can make one, but we think that the weblog PACEMRCPUK is doing an excellent job and is trying to publish good clues and hints that are useful in the clinical examination every few days, and the quality of the contents can be trusted. So we recommend this weblog as an assistant to those who are preparing for PACES.
Best wishes .
