I just finished a month on Pathology and am about to start a month of Radiology. Yea, so basically 2 months of Pathoradioholiday =P Anyway, a few quick links:
Pathology Outlines - a good collection of different pathological findings
Aunt Minnie - a website about all things radiology
Over My Med Body - a funny blog from a med student at Stanford
The Radiology Blog - posts on various radiology topics
Roentgen Ray Reader - various interesting images and diseases with nice imaging correlates

Books For Pediatrics Core Clerkship / Rotation And Shelf Exam
I just finished my pediatrics clerkship. For us, the rotation is set up with 2 weeks of neonatology, 2 weeks of ambulatory / outpatient clinics, and 1 month of inpatient care. At the end, we were required to take a pediatrics shelf exam. I think I did alright, but that test was looooong.
To prepare, I used Case Files, First Aid for Pediatrics, and Appleton & Lange Review for Pediatrics questions. They were all fairly helpful. I'm pretty sure I saw some questions from the A&L show up nearly verbatim on my shelf. If you're interested in any of those, check 'em out:

Vikas Bhushan and Tao Le Bring You: First Aid For The Wards
So, I've been pretty MIA the past few weeks. Why, you ask? Well, I recently started my clinical rotations or clerkships. I have pediatrics first. It's been pretty fun so far. Our system is set up to have 2 weeks of neonatology, 2 weeks of outpatient clinics, and 1 month of inpatient. I have finished the neonatology / outpatient month and am now midway through the inpatient month. The kids have been surprisingly easy to work with and I haven't gotten sick yet... *crosses fingers*
In a future post, I'll discuss some resources that I have found useful, but for starting clinical rotations overall, First Aid for the Wards
is pretty good. It gives you an overview of the hierarchy on the wards, how notes work, and common practices and diseases within each specialty. I definitely impressed my attendings by knowing about 'cupping' from the pediatrics section. Check it out:
