The USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination) is a three step examination for medical licensure in the United States. Step 2 CS (clinical skills) uses standardised patients to test medical students and graduates on their ability to gather information from patients, perform physical examinations and communicate their findings to patients and colleagues. Step 2 not only tests medical knowledge, but also communication skills, and is required for ECFMG (Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates) certification. This DVD video atlas with booklet contains eight scenarios demonstrating the correct way to approach the practical aspect of the exam.
