Delivered by consultants and registrars in T&O, this 1 day course aims to provide those involved in the care of trauma patients presenting with fractures with the necessary knowledge to evaluate trauma radiographs and to minimize missed diagnoses. The course will discuss commonly missed symptoms and signs, as well as offer strategies for the interpretation of different radiographs. The day will consist of case-base discussions in the form of interactive lectures and small group teaching.

This course is designed for candidates preparing for the FRCS (Tr & Orth) exam, and trainees who are in their earlier years of training and would like to gain hand and wrist surgery knowledge and viva experience. It is particularly unique as it is completely exam focused, giving you the exact buzz words and key concepts to help you in the exam. In the mornings, we will deliver a comprehensive lecture programme covering the core components of hand and wrist surgery topics for the FRCS (Tr & Orth) exam. In the afternoons, mock viva stations will provide you with the opportunity to refine and test your hand and wrist surgery knowledge, practise your exam technique, and clarify any issues with an experienced specialist faculty.
