Based on the website of the Royal College of Radiologists, changes to the FRCR examinations are being proposed. The 5 main areas for change, and their planned dates of implementation, are summarised below:

1. Single test of physics knowledge - Spring 2009

2. Electronic format for rapid reporting session - Spring 2009

3. Single best answer (SBA) format questions for the Final FRCR Part A exam - Autumn 2009

4. Test of anatomy knowledge - Spring 2010

5. Electronic format for reporting session - not before Spring 2010

Key changes proposed include the return of formal testing of anatomy knowledge, and the introduction of electronic formats for both the rapid reporting and reporting components of the final FRCR exam.
