Core & Certifying sections
A depth-dialed question bank with cited lessons and explanations for the NIS and RISC sections of the radiology Core and Certifying exams. Free to start, offline, no ads.
Prepare for the Noninterpretive Skills (NIS) and Radioisotope Safety (RISC)
sections of the diagnostic radiology Core and Certifying exams, on a single,
fully offline app built by a practicing diagnostic radiologist.
NIS & RISC Review turns two exhaustively fact-checked question banks into a
focused study loop: learn the high-yield material, drill it at the depth you
need, and track exactly where you stand by domain. No account, no subscription,
no internet required — everything runs on your device.
Start free with the first two sections of each guide. One $4.99 purchase unlocks
everything else, permanently — no subscription, and no repurchase when the
content is updated for a new exam cycle.
FREE TO START
• RISC — radiation protection, and the mathematics of radioactivity measurement.
• NIS — professionalism, and the core concepts of quality and safety.
• Full lessons, essentials sheets, and practice questions for those four
sections, plus the readiness dashboard, search, and progress tracking.
FULL ACCESS — ONE $4.99 PURCHASE
• Every remaining section of both guides, with all of their lessons, essentials
sheets, and questions.
• The complete question bank across every practice pool.
• Every future content update, including revisions for later exam cycles.
• One time, not a subscription. Yours forever, on both iPhone and iPad.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• 458 board-style questions (204 RISC, 254 NIS), single-best-answer multiple
choice, each written to test the exact distinctions these sections care about
— and independently audited for accuracy.
• 37 concise, cited lessons with high-yield callouts, dose tables, and source
chips, so you can trace every fact.
• A review-depth dial — study everything, high-yield only, the must-know core,
or the hand-picked essentials — so you can go as broad or as tight as you
like, down to a single-day cram before the exam.
• Instant grading with a cited explanation for every answer choice, scored by
domain, so you always know exactly where you stand.
• Abbreviated "Essentials" cram sheets for every domain — must-know facts, key
tables, and figures, for a fast pass the day before.
• A readiness dashboard with a per-guide mastery score, a study streak, and a
next-up lesson from your weakest domain.
TOPICS COVERED
RISC — radiation protection, management of radioactive sources, radiopharma-
ceutical administration, regulatory exposure limits, radiation biology, accident/
incident response, and the math of radioactivity measurement.
NIS — imaging informatics, quality and safety, MR safety and contrast reactions,
professionalism, and reimbursement, regulatory, and legal considerations.
BUILT FOR FOCUS
• 100% offline — study on the wards, in the reading room, on a plane.
• Anonymous — no sign-up, no email, no tracking, no ads.
• Fast, distraction-free interface designed for quick daily reps.
• Report-an-issue on any card or question, so the content keeps improving.
WHO IT'S FOR
Diagnostic radiology residents taking the Core exam and attendings taking the
Certifying exam, who want a rigorous, no-nonsense tool for the NIS and RISC
material and nothing else.
