#FOAMed (Free Open Access Meducation)

The internet is a gold mine for Medical Students. Encyclopaedias, interactive tutorials, guideline databases and question banks are all online in abundance. Most junior doctors will have a list of their favourite websites - the ones that got them through Finals!

The #FOAMed community is growing rapidly with numerous websites and lots of Twitter streams of new and innovative medical education resources. We are compiling a list of all the best online resources, with ratings and tips on how to get the best from each website. Vitally, we want YOU to contribute to this database so that we make sure we find even the most elusive online gems - if you have any links that you find invaluable then submit them using our simple form.

Make sure you follow us on Twitter (@OSCE_Aid) to keep up with the latest OSCE #FOAMed!

Swansea Radiology Teaching Site
Really good site to go through when practicing presenting films - it has lots of 'Case of the Week' mini-modules using various different imaging modalities to try to teach key points. Also has an image bank (good for putting together presentations), but perhaps less extensive than other sites.

UW Medicine: Online MSK Radiology Book
A free online textbook dedicated to the world of musculoskeletal radiology. Useful if you have a particular interest in the field, or if you have specific questions that have cropped up in your clinical studies.

The Radiology Assistant
High level radiology tutorials...maybe less relevant for Finals revision, but good if you have a specific area of interest or want to impress on the ward round!
