What students are saying - about ThisIsRad!!!

ThisIsRad has been an absolute game-changer in my radiology education. I love how clear, engaging, and concise the videos are -- just the right length to keep me focused while covering high-yield content. The visual explanations are top-tier and make even complex imaging findings feel manageable.

ThisIsRad has been an incredibly helpful resource in my radiology learning and board prep. Dr. Ditchek does a fantastic job breaking down complex radiologic topics into easy-to-understand concepts that are directly relevant to Step 2 and Level 2 exam prep. The course is engaging, visually rich, and thoughtfully structured to help reinforce key ideas. His explanations and teaching methods help solidify important patterns and principles. I’m so grateful for this course! It’s made radiology and board studying feel approachable and very fun to learn!

ThisisRad is an amazing one-stop-shop resource for Radiology questions on a variety of medical tests- USMLE/COMLEX, shelf exams, COMATS and so on. It's easy to navigate, as well as makes complex medical topics easy to understand and digest, whilst also being engaging and memorable. There's nothing quite like it that compares that is so readily accessible to medical students. Can't say enough good things about this resource for exam and board prep!

Dr. Ditchek does an excellent job of explaining radiology in a clear, concise, and logical way. Diagnostic imaging plays a role in nearly every medical specialty. It’s essential that future clinicians develop a solid understanding of how to utilize it effectively. This course lays out the foundations in an approachable and engaging way. It’s not only helpful for preparing for clinical rotations and board exams, but also for strengthening our overall clinical reasoning and diagnostic skills. I'm excited to dive into the upcoming modules.

This resource is so cool! The videos are short and dynamic so they really hold my attention. These are topics not covered in other board prep material, and I definitely feel like they are helpful when studying for Step 2.

Thisisrad is excellent for exam and board review as they make me feel more knowledgeable and prepared. What makes these videos amazing is how entertaining they are. They teach you a lot of radiology, but in a way that makes you really enjoy it. I logged in when I first got it planning to watch a video but ended up watching an entire chapter because I wanted to know what was in the next video. The videos keep my attention and simultaneously provide mnemonics that stick in my head , hopefully forever until I need the knowledge for my patients. I loved the usage of the comparison of the fog horn for the understanding of high vs low frequency ultrasound penetration and I think it is a good way to explain an ultrasound to a patient. I also like the use of arrows for the radiographs that show me exactly where the pathology is being discussed. Very worth it for increasing your understanding even if you don’t have an upcoming exam.

Overall, these videos are short and sweet and really focus nicely on the high yield information. I really appreciated it as a quick overview to remember how to look at imaging that i struggle with and look forward to more nearoanatomy/ CT head imaging as well.

As promised by Dr. Ditchek. Videos are concise, efficient, and share everything pertinent to what may be asked in an exam. I love the formatting, visuals, and quiz recaps of what was discussed within a module.

ThisIsRad? More like ThisIs the resource we’ve NEEDED. Step 2 and Level 2 board examinations are littered with questions that test your knowledge on imaging. Yet, many prep resources of today are “one-stop-shops” for boards and fail to focus on one-single high yield aspect relating to these exams. Moreover, the radiology resources currently out there either have low-quality imaging, overwhelming amount of labels or unnecessary information, or simply don’t include the board-relevant material necessary to start getting questions RIGHT. ThisIsRad beautifully combines detailed clinical vignettes with carefully chosen high-quality imaging slides to create a well-structured resource plan in bite-sized snippets. It’s made radiology visually engaging, interactive, and - most importantly - relevant to boards.

ThisIsRad is a great resource for all medical students to obtain a comprehensive review of Radiology that is needed for courses and board exams. The material is taught in an approachable manner that ensures complete understanding. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking for additional support in their Radiology education.

The series is a great way to learn radiology and he’s a great teacher!

Dr. Ditchek is the best! He taught at my medical school in our radiology course and made understanding a very complicated specialty so much easier to understand! Highly recommend watching his videos- you won't find this content anywhere else.

As a second year student, Dr. Ditchek is able to explain radiology in a way that is easily digestible and makes sense! I was one of the students that would come to his lectures in person and I think all med students should have access to his teaching!! Thank you Dr. Ditchek for putting this together

I have really enjoyed the program so far! It is very organized and comprehensive of the high yield radiology images needed for board exams. I have not seen any similar program, so this resource is invaluable

ThisIsRad is a fantastic high yield course that thoroughly helped me as someone who had no previous exposure to imaging. I always skipped over the images and hoped to sigure out questions based on the prompt. Dr. Ditchek is a fantastic educator. His passion translates radiology into a more approachable part of medicine.

ThisIsRad is one of the few resources that actually teaches you how to think in radiology, not just what to memorize. As an IMG radiology trainee preparing for the USMLE Step exams, I can clearly see how high-quality and well-structured the material is. Clear explanations, excellent case selection, and a very practical approach that translates directly to real-world reporting. Genuinely useful both during training and beyond.

Big fan of This Is Rad! Dr. Ditchek lectures at my medical school, and his teaching style is what first sparked my interest in radiology, so I had to check out This Is Rad. The content is clear, concise, and straight to the point, and he makes it incredibly easy to remember key concepts through images, mnemonics, and simple explanations. It provides a whole other perspective of typical pathologies to round out the education and board prep experience.

Loved it!!

I love that it really simplifies radiology. It has helped me on my neurology rotation and allowed me to better understand MRIs/CTs.

Thank you Dr. Ditchek for all your guidance!

Makes radiology easy to learn and the heavily tested concepts of Step make sense!

It's really organized, and everything is easy to find. The course made it easy to understand the key concepts found on boards.

ThisIsRad has been a great resource during IM rotations! The videos have been very applicable and helped me decipher imaging for the patient's I've seen over the last few months. Can't wait for more!!

Love this course! Amazing quality videos with great images and simple explanations. I definitely recommend it to all!

Great and efficient way to learn radiology! Memory tips are great for board exams.

The content presented does a great job to prepare students for clinical rotations and provides a deeper understanding of various diseases.

I absolutely love ThisIsRad! It is fun and easy to follow. Dr. Ditchek breaks down and simplifies radiology concepts into something that finally makes sense! He uses analogies, comparisons, and alternate images or diagrams to effectively convey the concept. Dr. Ditchek also shares unique cases with rare presentations that really help the concepts stick. He uses arrows on images, so you know exactly where to concentrate. This is an absolutely amazing radiology review resource for COMLEX, Step, shelf exams, and even residency. After completing the modules, you will feel like you speak the radiology language and can read common medical images.

Dr. Ditchek is awesome. Highly recommend this platform for anyone looking to excel in radiology. I love his engaging teaching style that breaks down complex concepts into digestible and clinically relevant insights.

When studying for boards using traditional textbooks, I often found the radiographic images too small and lacking in helpful guidance—they’d provide a description, but rarely highlight the key findings directly on the image. That’s why I’ve really appreciated using ThisIsRad. Dr. Ditchek takes the time to clearly identify and point out the essential features students need to recognize in order to make an accurate diagnosis. I also love that the platform goes beyond just imaging—it includes key takeaways, clinical context, and the next best steps in management. It’s been an incredibly useful and efficient resource for board prep, and I highly recommend it to anyone preparing for exams

ThisIsRad gives us exactly what we need, not only to succeed on boards, but also to become better physicians. Dr. Dithcek's clear, concise teaching style makes complex radiology concepts easy to understand. The course content is high-yield, well-organized, and relevant for boards. The video format is dynamic and engaging, with emphasis on what matters most, keeping the material approachable and digestible. This is an invaluable and incomparable resource!! There is nothing like it!
