For current planning on 5 June 2026, eu-uems-radiology is EDiR, the European Diploma in Radiology administered by EBR and endorsed by ESR and UEMS. Official current facts include eligibility for fifth-year radiology residents and certified radiologists, ESR and national radiological society membership requirements, EUR 500 or EUR 1,100 fees depending on ESR membership category, a one-day computer-based exam with MRQs for 95 minutes, Short Cases for 90 minutes, and CORE for 90 minutes, pass marks based on mean minus one standard deviation with WWS and CORE bounds, and a requirement to pass each part.
Sample EDiR Practice Questions
Try these sample questions to test your EDiR exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.
1A fifth-year radiology resident asks what the EDiR represents on their CV. Which statement best reflects the official identity of the examination?
A.It is a national specialist registration document issued independently in each European country.
B.It is a European certification and benchmark in radiology administered by the European Board of Radiology and endorsed by ESR and UEMS.
C.It is a national board examination run by each country's ministry of health.
D.It is a subspecialty fellowship examination limited to interventional radiology.
Explanation: The European Diploma in Radiology is administered by the European Board of Radiology and endorsed by ESR and UEMS. It is a certification and benchmark, but it does not by itself replace separate national licensing or training requirements.
2A radiology trainee plans to sit the EDiR in October. At the examination date, which eligibility status is most consistent with current requirements?
A.Any medical graduate with two years of general clinical experience and no radiology training requirement.
B.Third-year radiology resident status, provided the candidate has passed a local physics examination.
C.Diagnostic imaging technologist status with active ESR membership and a consultant sponsor.
D.At least fifth year of national radiology training, with ESR membership and active national radiological society membership.
Explanation: Current eligibility includes radiologists and radiology residents in their fifth year of training, with at least fifth-year national radiology training at exam time. ESR membership and active national radiological society membership are required.
3A candidate trained in a shorter national radiology programme asks how eligibility may be assessed. Which answer is most accurate?
A.Shorter programmes may require supervised staff radiologist experience, and a total of four years' experience at application may be considered.
B.Shorter programmes are accepted without supervised experience if the candidate has passed any national written examination.
C.Only the final calendar year before graduation matters; total radiology experience is not considered.
D.Eligibility is waived for corresponding ESR members who pay the higher fee.
Explanation: The terms allow certified radiologists or last-year residents, and for shorter programmes supervised staff radiologist experience may be relevant. A total of four years' experience at application may be considered; fees do not waive eligibility.
4Which fee statement is correct for the current EDiR fee structure, excluding any local or session-specific charges?
A.EUR 500 for all applicants regardless of ESR membership category.
B.EUR 1,100 for ESR members in training and EUR 500 for corresponding ESR members.
C.EUR 500 for ESR full members and ESR members in training; EUR 1,100 for corresponding ESR members.
D.No examination fee is charged if the candidate is in the last year of training.
Explanation: The current stated fees are EUR 500 for ESR full members and ESR members in training, and EUR 1,100 for corresponding ESR members. Local or session fees may apply separately.
5A candidate wants to understand the EDiR examination day. Which option correctly describes the current structure?
A.A two-day oral examination with ten viva stations and no computer-based component.
B.A one-day computer-based examination consisting only of standard MCQs.
C.A one-day computer-based examination with MRQs for 95 minutes, short cases for 90 minutes, and CORE practical-oriented cases for 90 minutes.
D.A three-day assessment with separate written, cadaveric anatomy, and procedural simulation sections.
Explanation: The current EDiR is a one-day computer-based exam with three components: MRQs, short cases, and CORE practical-oriented cases, with durations of 95, 90, and 90 minutes respectively.
6During preparation, a candidate asks how Part 1 is calculated. Which formula is correct?
A.Part 1 score = 0.3 times short case score plus 0.7 times MRQ score.
B.Part 1 score = 0.5 times CORE score plus 0.5 times MRQ score.
C.Part 1 score = short case score only; MRQs are used only to break ties.
D.Part 1 score = 0.7 times short case score plus 0.3 times CORE score.
Explanation: Part 1 combines the short case and MRQ components using the formula: 0.3 times SC score plus 0.7 times MRQ score. Part 2 is the CORE score.
7Which statement about EDiR question scoring is correct?
A.MRQs use negative marking, so omitted answers are always safer than partial responses.
B.All question types are scored only as 0 or 100, including image annotation.
C.Image annotation deducts points for every incorrect label, often producing negative total scores.
D.MRQs use proportional scoring without negative marking, and image annotation has proportional scoring without penalties for incorrect answers.
Explanation: MRQs use proportional scoring with no negative marking and a minimum score of 0. Image annotation also uses proportional scoring without penalties for incorrect answers. Some other formats, such as MCQ or abnormality location, may be scored 0 or 100.
8A candidate fails one part of the EDiR but passes the other. Which statement is most accurate?
A.The passed part is banked permanently, and only the failed part is repeated.
B.The candidate must pass each part; failed candidates re-sit the entire examination.
C.The candidate receives the diploma if the average of both parts exceeds the pass mark.
D.The candidate may re-sit only CORE, but not MRQs or short cases.
Explanation: Candidates must pass each part. Failed candidates re-sit the entire exam. Results are expected within 27 calendar days, and candidates who have passed cannot take the EDiR again.
9A 62-year-old smoker has progressive cough. Chest radiograph shows right upper lobe volume loss, elevation of the minor fissure, and a right hilar mass. Which diagnosis is most likely?
A.Uncomplicated right upper lobe pneumonia without airway obstruction
B.Central bronchogenic carcinoma causing right upper lobe collapse
C.Pulmonary embolism with Hampton hump
D.Right upper lobe pulmonary sequestration
Explanation: Right upper lobe collapse with a hilar mass in an older smoker is highly suspicious for a central obstructing bronchogenic carcinoma. The combination of lobar volume loss and a central mass should prompt CT and bronchoscopy-based evaluation.
10A 28-year-old woman presents with acute pleuritic chest pain and dyspnoea. CT pulmonary angiography shows a central filling defect surrounded by contrast in a segmental pulmonary artery. What is the key imaging diagnosis?
A.Pulmonary artery sarcoma
B.Bronchiectasis with mucus plugging
C.Chronic pulmonary venous hypertension
D.Acute pulmonary embolism
Explanation: An intraluminal filling defect within an opacified pulmonary artery on CT pulmonary angiography is the classic finding of pulmonary embolism. Acute emboli often form central or eccentric defects with contrast surrounding them.
