The exam consists of a theoretical part with Multiple Response Questions (MRQs) and Short Cases (SCs), followed by the Clinically Oriented Reasoning Evaluation (CORE) examination section, which tests the comprehensive radiology curriculum
After the first 5 years of life of the exam, in 2016, the exponential growth in the number of candidates and the need for an onlinebased and even better-standardised examination system has led to replacement of the oral part with the CORE examination (Fig. 1)
Summary
The European Diploma in Radiology (EDiR) is an instrument for assessing the competence in radiology [1]. It goes through a continuous improvement process, which has seen it undergo several changes until now. Our aim is to analyse and compare the impact the introduction of the Clinically Oriented Reasoning Evaluation (CORE) has had on the examination in comparison to the former oral exam. The set-up and the different parts of the exam are described. The exam consists of a theoretical part with Multiple Response Questions (MRQs) and Short Cases (SCs), followed by the CORE examination section, which tests the comprehensive radiology curriculum
