This app is the ultimate clinical hematology study tool. The entire discipline is covered: red cell, malignant, clotting, transfusion and laboratory management. 1001 multiple choice questions, fully explained, referenced and linked.
It is pitched at the level of the specialist trainee or senior resident in hematology, but is ideal as a comprehensive, interactive study tool for the keen medical student, core medical trainee or intern.
The app will test your knowledge through multiple choice best of five and extended matching style questions, precisely mirroring the format of the internationally recognised Royal College of Pathologists (UK) FRCPath examination. Written by four London-based consultant hematologists, every question has been revised and updated for 2016.
Every correct answer is justified with a comprehensive explanation. Every question links to a recent, public access, peer-reviewed journal article, turning the app into a portable self-assessment textbook.
Your scores are tracked, strengths and weaknesses can be checked at a glance to focus your study. Theres a mock exam function, delivering as many questions as you think you can handle under exam conditions, providing your mark instantly on completion, and a full review of how you got on, where you went wrong, and linking into appropriate further reading. Youll also find a study advice guide with links to further reading.
Disagree with the answer? Think the question is ambiguous, the answer outdated, or just plain wrong? Let us know! Clinical medicine is sometimes less science than art and developments in hematology move fast... Every question contains an instant feedback option to allow differences of opinion to be debated and questions to be revised, improved and updated.
Every month will see new questions uploaded, and the app will remain up to the second for content and referencing.
Please note that this app is intended as an education and study tool only, and the correct answers are the opinion of the authors.
