Description
The knowledge base for neurology and neurosurgery keeps increasing in scope and complexity, and the current day trainee or practitioner of neurosurgery often finds it difficult to keep up with the explosion of information, especially with the healthy growth in specialization in various branches of medicine.
In order to deal with this challenge, Colen Publishing © has teamed up with Medicom Digital, Inc. to create the Colen Flash Review. This application consists of the following modules:
Biostatistics
Neuroanatomy
Neurobehavorial
Neurobiology
Neurocritical Care
Neurology
Neurology-Neurosurgery
Neuropathology
Neuropharmacology
Neuroradiology
Neurosurgery
All of these applications are available through Apple’s In-App Purchasing, and you can select any combination that you want to use.
The applications incorporate small quanta of knowledge into interactive flashcards accompanied by clear and simple illustrations, tables and additional notes. Each card represents a mini-examination with instant access to appropriate answers.
There are three groupings of the flashcards in the application as indicated by the tabs across the bottom of the screen: Full Deck, Board Favorites, and By Keyword. Your progress through each of these tabbed groupings is tracked, timed, and saved individually. This means that you can move between the tabs at any time without losing your progress in the other tabs. It also means that when you close the application and later return, your progress in each grouping is still there.
You can review as few or as many cards as your time will allow. Although not meant to be substitutes for standard comprehensive texts and atlases, these cards help to refresh the information learned from the bedside, operating room and standard books.

Not sure what board they are talking about
I reviewed these questions after I took the neurology board and there is very little in this app to help. There are many " board favorite" questions ; none of them were actually in the board. Maybe they are talking about The Neurosurgery board. At any rate, this is more entertaining than educative. I would NOT count on this app to even remotely study for the ABPN. There are various books and courses out there with a much more realistic similarity to the Neuro board. I would not spend money on this one.
Good neurosurgery app. Needs iPad version!
Good app but could be great. Questions and answers are very well written with extensive reviews for most cards. Great review app. I'm taking two stars off, though: first because the price for all cards significantly exceeds the paper version, and second because there is no iPad version.
Rip off
You expect us to pay hundreds of dollars for the card version of this tool and then on top of that spend hundreds more?! No discounted rate for those that have already purchased the card version? In addition the price of these sets is ridiculous!!!
