Content and Educational Governance

Published questions are subject to human editorial review before release.

Artificial intelligence may assist with drafting, wording refinement, consistency checks and personalised answer support. Questions are not published automatically, and final editorial responsibility remains with the Clinical Editor.

Editorial review considers clinical accuracy, clarity, relevance to FRCR 2A preparation and whether the information provided supports a single best answer.

Content that does not meet the required standard may be revised, withheld or removed.

Questions are developed using appropriate educational and clinical source material, which may include recognised radiology textbooks, clinical guidance, peer-reviewed literature, professional-society guidance and established classification or reporting systems.

Artificial intelligence is not treated as a clinical evidence source.

Where guidance or accepted practice differs, the issue may be considered during editorial review and the content may be qualified, revised or excluded where appropriate.

AI may assist with:

• drafting and wording refinement;
• development of answer options and distractors;
• consistency and ambiguity checks;
• explanation structure;
• formatting and metadata;
• personalised answer support.

AI does not independently approve or publish questions.

Every published question remains subject to human editorial oversight.

Published questions include an approved keyed answer and editorial explanation.

Personalised AI answer support is supplementary. It does not override the approved keyed answer or automatically alter the underlying question record.

Mock papers are assembled using a curriculum-based structure intended to provide broad coverage and an appropriate range of difficulty.

Mock-only questions may be held separately from routine practice to preserve an unseen-paper experience.

The mock papers are independent educational materials and do not reproduce or claim to predict official Royal College of Radiologists examination papers.

Candidates can report possible factual errors, ambiguity, outdated content, explanation inconsistencies or technical problems through the platform.

Concerns are considered according to their nature and the available evidence. Content may be corrected, revised, temporarily withheld or removed where appropriate.

Suitably qualified reviewers may be asked to review selected content, specialist topics or questions requiring additional consideration.

The 2A Bank does not encourage candidates to disclose confidential live examination content.

No official examination questions are knowingly reproduced.

Question development must not use identifiable patient information.

The 2A Bank is an independent commercial educational resource operated by BELMAR RADIOLOGY LIMITED.

It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Royal College of Radiologists.

References to teaching organisations, NHS bodies, universities or training programmes must not imply endorsement or ownership unless a specific written agreement exists.
