Welcome to EPISODE 6 of THE PHYSICS PODCAST from RADIOLOGY JAM - Echoes Everywhere! This week we continue our journey into MRI sequences with a particular focus on the techniques that allow FAST imaging.. spoiler alert there are a lot of echoes involved :)
The FRCR Part 1 physics exam can be challenging for those new to radiology and medical physics. The aim of THE PHYSICS PODCAST by RADIOLOGY JAM is to cut through the jargon and ask those questions you wish you had! We are starting with the hardest topic first, the one that candidates find most challenging... MRI! To save us from the MRI spiral of doom is Medical Physicist Extraordinaire Joely Smith.
Joely Smith is an MR Physicist at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust and an Honorary Lecturer at Imperial College London. The team at Radiology Jam are so excited to welcome Joely, who manages to make complex concepts into digestible little nuggets with a sprinkle of fun! Join us! We promise you won’t be bored!

Welcome to EPISODE 3 of THE PHYSICS PODCAST from RADIOLOGY JAM -How we use magnets to create an image (part 1)
Following on from last weeks episode the amazing medical physicist Joely Smith explores how the signal created is converted to an image we can see on screen and interpret with our human eyes/brain!

Welcome to EPISODE 2 of THE PHYSICS PODCAST from RADIOLOGY JAM - How we use magnets to create an image (part 1)
Today we are packing in a lot of important concepts that are crucial for understanding how magnets are used to generate an electric signal from the human body. The signal generated is then encoded and decoded to create an image, which we cover in Episode 3. The extremely complex subject matter (quantum physics no less! ) that are covered in this episode are the essential building blocks of MR physics. It is heavy, but has been simplified down by the amazing medical physicist Joely Smith so even I can understand it! Below are timestamps for the episode so you can skip straight into the subjects you find most challenging and as always we recommend dipping in and out of the episode and taking your time. Listen on your commute, while your cleaning the kitchen or watering the plants! :)

Episode 3 in our TWO B TROUBLE SHOOTERS series is CARDIAC IMAGING - Cardiac CT and Cardiac MR with Dr Ben Ariff, Cardiac Radiologist at Imperial College NHS Trust and Honorary Clinical Senior Lecturer at Imperial College, London
Dr Ariff completed his specialist training in general internal medicine, clinical pharmacology and radiology, providing him with a unique insight and understanding of cardiovascular imaging.
He is sub-specialised in cardiovascular CT and MR. Dr Ariff is a level 3 trainer in cardiovascular CT and MR as is a course director in accredited CT and CMR courses around the world. He has hands-on experience of most CT and MRI scanners optimising protocols and sequences to ensure bespoke imaging.
We are so happy to have him join the RADIOLOGY JAM podcast!
Ben is contactable on twitter @cvimasterclass and for those with a particular interest in cardiac imaging and/or just want to get your "eye in" I recommend you look at ben's website cvimasterclass.org

Welcome to the first "2b trouble shooters" episode. You asked and we delivered! SPINES!
Despite its perceived difficulty MRI Spines are a FAIR exam case. As they are a common and an expected on-call scan and you should have a safe and logical method when reporting spinal MR.
You need to know what a normal spine looks like on each sequence. This is achieved by understanding the basic anatomy of the cord and associated spaces, the intervertebral discs and associated spaces, the vertebrae themselves and last but not least the paraspinal soft tissues.
Our 2b TROUBLESHOOTING episodes aim to go a bit further. Here we have the space to retrace basic anatomy, discuss approaches AND cover the common exam topics in our normal format. We've put these extra's at the end of the episode, so that the key differentials for exam day are at the top of the listening pile.
Let us know if you like this new style and what you want us to cover next!
Good luck,
The RADIOLOGY JAM team

Welcome to The FRCR TWO B PODCAST from Radiology Jam. Our 6th episode is MSK or Musculoskeletal Imaging!
MSK imaging forms the bulk of the FRCR 2b exam, from rapids to long cases and also in the viva, there a some classic cases you just have to know! Learn the common skeletal manifestations of systemic diseases such as sickle cell or hyperparathyroidism, learn the common traumatic injuries to the knee and learn various arthritis that can affect the hand - these often come up!
