This app is an attempt to give the reader guidance how to read a chest Xray. There is no perfect way to read an x-ray. However, the important message I would like to give is, to adopt one or the other approach, and to use the chosen approach consistently.

Chest X-rays tests are ordered by physicians for a variety of reasons. Many clinical conditions can be evaluated by this simple radiology test. Some of the common conditions detected on a chest X-ray include, pneumonia, enlarged heart, congestive heart failure, lung mass, rib fractures, fluid around the lung (pleural effusion), and air around the lung (pneumothorax).

In general, a chest X-ray test is a simple, quick, inexpensive, and relatively harmless procedure with minimal risk of radiation. It is also widely available.

A chest X-ray test is a very common, non-invasive radiology test that produces an image of the chest and the internal organs. To produce a chest X-ray test, the chest is briefly exposed to radiation from an X-ray machine and an image is produced on a film or into a digital computer. Chest X-ray is also referred to as a chest radiograph, chest roentgenogram, or CXR. Depending on its density, each organ within the chest cavity absorbs varying degrees of radiation, producing different shadows on the film. Chest X-ray images are black and white with only the brightness or darkness defining the various structures. For example, bones of the chest wall (ribs and vertebrae) may absorb more of the radiation and thus, appear whiter on the film.

On the other hand, the lung tissue, which is mostly composed of air, will allow most of the radiation to pass through, developing the film to a darker appearance. The heart and the aorta will appear whitish, but usually less bright than the bones, which are more denser.

Chest X-rays for Medical Students is a unique teaching and learning resource that offers students, junior doctors, trainee radiologists, nurses, physiotherapists and nurse practitioners a basic understanding of the principles of chest radiology.
Provides a memorable way to analyze and present chest radiographs – the unique ‘ABCDE’ system as developed by the developer
Explains how to recognize basic radiological signs, pathology and patterns associated with common medical conditions as seen on plain PA and AP chest radiographs
Presents each radiograph twice, side by side - once as would be seen in a clinical setting and again with the pathology clearly highlighted
Includes a section of self-assessment and presentation exercises to test knowledge and presentation technique
Ideal for study and clinical reference, this app will be the ideal companion for any medical student, junior doctor or trainee radiographer.

Chest X Ray is probably the most common imaging test. Few providers (including MDs) are comfortable interpreting their own films. Clinical decisions are too often made based on reports from non-clinicians. Having a systematic and repetitive approach is the key.

By the end of this lecture, the learner will be able to:

Develop an understanding of the normal CXR appearance
Assess the technical quality of a CXR
Utilize a systematic and reliable approach in CXR evaluation
Identify common CXR findings
Correlate basic CXR findings with clinical evaluation in order to reach a diagnosis
