Students used your review book and said it was very useful. One student said she was disappointed that there was only one question about catheters, and nothing about needles or guidewires. The angiography wasn't too hard, as our students work in high level angio labs. Only a few questions required you to figure answers out. Yes, there are several photographic copies of angiograms on the exam.
Photos are difficult to copy.
However, as exam technology increases and moves to a computer base, the exams anticipate moving angios, moving pressure waves and ECGs, and interactive grading, where they will tell you immediately whether you passed and which questions you missed. Recent exams have also downplayed the difficult pediatric content because so few people do pediatric cases. I thought the EKG content was about the same as on previous exams. But, the invasive RCVT exam was a real challenge. I was disappointed that the exam had so few questions on cath techniques.
