Starting AIRP in a few months... How relevant are these lectures for boards?

Ehh. They are not bad for board information but not tailored to it. I watched a good number of the lectures but did a little picking and choosing based on topics I wanted to know more about. Generally high quality lectures, at least.

Msk and body stuff are good, you can safely skip the rest

Agree. The lectures are actually really good, I learned a lot. But way too dense for boards. MSK lectures I did think were really good overall though. The others were more hit or miss but too much detail for studying - I would advise the same as above, pick and choose your weak points.
 
I paid minimal attention when I attended AIRP and passed core without issues. But maybe I would have been a better radiologist if I paid attention :/
 
I skipped everything except Smirniotopolous and Mark Murphey and did fine. In other words, not very relevant.

Month long vacation for me, passed boards with flying colors. Agree that MSK section stands out amongst the rest.
 
Are there any particularly bad lectures to avoid?
 
I remember the brain tumor lectures being very irrelevant. Stuff about tumor markers, biologics, etc. Maybe good if you're an academic neueoradiologist

You'd think for a course as popular as AIRP, they would have a competitive process to ensure the quality of lectures/lecturers. Nah. Some are good, some are bad, and overall it is just above average. Some of the cases are from the film days and their lectures haven't been updated since.
