I already answered parts of your question in another thread. (www.usmleforums.net:81/viewtopic.php?t=256)
If you are a certified radiologist in another country and you are on a H visa, then you need all USMLE steps including step 3. If you are on a J1 visa, then step 3 is not necessary (but still the others).

Regarding preparing for step 1, 2 and 3 I would recommend First Aid, Crush and USMLEHelp.

I can't answer question 1 but regarding question 2:
I would recommend for Step 1 "First Aid for the USMLE Step 1".
For Step 2 CK You can either use "First Aid for the USMLE Step 2 CK" or "Crush Step 2"
For Step 2 CS I recommend "USMLEHelp Step 2 CS".
And for USMLE Step 3 CCS I recommend "USMLEHelp Step 3 CCS"

This might not exactly answer your question, but since you are radiologist, this might help you:

At the last RSNA, a new Radiology specific search engine has been presented. It is phantastic! You can search for almost ANYTHING you might need as a radiologist. I use it predominantly for image search - it's just great!
Maybe you might find there your answer?
Good luck!
