How to Read Chest X-Ray - From Zero to Hero

Chest X-Ray is the most widely practiced imaging procedure and knowing how to read it is a basic skill for every medical student or practitioner.

This course will help you start from the very beginning till you are able to read any CXR.

In this course:

• We will start with how to assess the four basic pillars of image quality using the mnemonic "RIPE".

• Then we will go through a quick anatomical review of which structures we see on a CXR.

• Then we will start learning to assess CXR in details following the mnemonic "ABCDEF":

  • A for Airways

  • B for Bones

  • C for Cardiac Silhouette

  • D for Diaphragm

  • E for Effusions

  • F for Lung Fields

And with a quiz after every lecture you will see the progress yourself!
