There is a narrow margin between pass and fail in the notably demanding Rapid Reporting component of the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) Part 2B examination. This book provides readers with a comprehensive evaluation of paediatric radiographs, not only for those preparing for this examination but for all those who report them in their clinical practice. The overriding principle remains the same regardless of background – safe radiographic interpretation. Prospective candidates may have only had limited opportunity to report paediatric imaging, which may have been some time before they attempt the examination. Whilst other resources provide only a limited selection of paediatric radiographs, this book is solely dedicated to improving skill and knowledge in paediatric reporting. This text has been meticulously crafted to bridge any gaps in knowledge, while addressing deficiencies repeatedly identified in the FRCR Part 2B Examiners’ Reports in that “many candidates struggle with interpretation of paediatric imaging—even for common paediatric pathologies” and that “knowledge of normal appearances on paediatric plain images…was particularly poor in the Rapid Reporting”. This new edition has been extensively revised and contains 3 new tests. This unrivalled educational resource now comprises nearly 400 practice paediatric radiographs which is unique to the marketplace. The range of cases, from neonate to adolescent, deliver a sound knowledge of common paediatric fracture patterns and pathologies which enables readers to confidently differentiate between normal and abnormal. The much-lauded explanations accompanying these high-quality imaging tests remain robust and accurate, allowing candidates to maximise their preparation for all facets of the FRCR 2B examination and beyond. Foreword by Professor Derek Roebuck

This volume began over a cup of coffee on Saskia de Rooy's patio. We wondered... What remains of the pop-up exhibition that concluded (in)sight: a portrait project? What did we-Saskia & Kimberly-learn? Two years later, we're still asking the same questions, and we invite you to explore them with us-one image, one story, at a time. That's how we make art and write history. Actually, it's how life happens. We flip backward and forward through individual and collective memories, rediscovering forgotten stories. We reframe past experiences to show who we are, to explain how we got here, and to imagine future possibilities for our real and imagined communities. Join us

"God's love is even more powerful than COVID-19. It never stops, it never sleeps, it does not rest for weekends, and it is always there for us. We can all draw our strength from God's love during the pandemic if we simply submit ourselves to his grace." These are the words of wisdom and encouragement that a Guatemalan seamstress provided during the pandemic. This book shares short stories of adventures from around the globe as the author responded to disasters such as hurricanes, cyclones, volcanic eruptions, famine, and COVID-19. He expected to inspire others around the world with his faith as he served communities with his engineering skills, but unexpectedly, he found inspiration through the faithful Christians he encountered during some of their darkest hours. In each story, you will be inspired by the lives of these Christians, whose faith would not be shaken and who allowed themselves to be used as instruments of God.

Gavina is frustrated. As a midwife with 40 years of experience, she knows what is needed to slash the infant and maternal mortality rates that are ravaging her Guatemalan Highlands community. Only two things stand in her way: a lack of clean water and a raging river nicknamed "The Assassin," which blocks access to the hospital. Under the mentorship of Mike Shawcross, a crusty old Brit with four decades of international development experience, the Marquette University Engineers Without Borders USA team works with the community to build a water project and construct a bridge that defeats The Assassin. Through engaging personal stories, Bridging Barriers tells of the trials, tribulations and successes of the engineers and community members who gave new hope to La Garrucha.

This book provides readers with a comprehensive evaluation of paediatric radiographs in preparation for the demanding Rapid Reporting component of the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) Part 2B examination, where the margin between pass and fail is very narrow. While other resources may include only a handful of paediatric images in a practice reporting packet, this book is dedicated solely to improving paediatric reporting skill and knowledge. It is designed to address an important deficiency identified in the FRCR Part 2B Examiners’ Report, in that “many candidates struggle with interpretation of paediatric imaging – even for common paediatric pathologies”. The ten practice tests presented, each with 30 images, will assist readers not only in passing the examination but also in the real world when they have to report paediatric radiographs independently. The range of cases covered, from neonate to adolescent, delivers a sound knowledge of both common paediatric fracture patterns and patterns which are subtler but require a definitive answer as to whether they are normal or abnormal. Guidance is also provided on how to describe each abnormality.
