In order to assist candidates preparing for the EDiR, the European Board of Radiology (EBR) has compiled a list of links.

The list is intended as a general guidance only since there are many other standard websites and teaching materials available on general radiology. The EBR does not claim ownership of any content of the third party links provided for educational purposes.

A familiarity with other ESR publications including the revised European Training Curriculum for Radiology, European Radiology and Insights into Imaging is recommended. Additionally, it is recommended to make use of the EDiR sample test available on the EBR website or via the ESR e-learning tool Education on Demand.
