EMQs
1) Image of CT abdomen. It was actually a fairly tricky one. Had to point out the diaphragm
(innervated by C3-5), liver, area where tumour is most likely to cause post hepatic
jaundice, area that is attached to the superior part of the pubis and the gallbladder I
THINK
2) Second one, were given a bunch of secretions/functions/structures, and had to match it
the corresponding organ. Stomach, oesophagus, small intestine, gallbladder and liver.
3) Three was a bunch of channels and transporters. Had to match them with the function.
Included Calbindin, Ferroportin, VitB12, DMT-1, etc…

Only 4 SBA’s on skin.
