FRCR Part 1 · Physics · 2026 Syllabus

Physics,
precisely.Pass, repeatably.

A question bank built the way radiologists actually revise — tagged to the RCR curriculum, graded by a miss-log that notices what your mock scores won't, and timed like the real thing. No filler. No fluff. 700+ stems, all reviewed for the 2026 sitting.

Q.01 / 40Tissue heating in ultrasound:
A
A. Tissue heating damaging foetal dividing cells during the first 8 weeks of gestation is of particular concern.
B
B. Temperature increase to the foetus in excess of 1.5°C is potentially hazardous and exposure time should be limited.
C
C. B-mode causes a higher temperature rise than pulsed Doppler mode for the same given time.
D
D. The temperature rise in soft tissue is greater than bone.
E
E. Pre-existing temperature elevation and the heat from the probe are additives to tissue heating.
