I'll be taking my oral boards this year and I don't have a study group, so I will be attending Osler to get as much mock oral practice as I can, but I don't have people to bounce questions off of.
I do not perform brachytherapy and do not have SBRT/SRS available where I practice, so I'm not sure how to answer questions on those techniques appropriately in the boards.
For example, do I say something like, "I do not perform brachytherapy at my institution, but I would certainly discuss the risks and benefits of LDR/HDR with this gentleman to help him decide and refer him accordingly if he were to choose that route" and then expect to answer the 'how would you do it?' question afterwards, or should I just not mention that I don't have brachy available to me? Same thing for SBRT/SRS.
Thanks.
