Description

This session aims to equip participants with the skills necessary to systematically interpret chest X-rays with confidence in under 30 seconds. Emphasis will be placed on identifying key features and recognising common pathologies, including pneumonia, pleural effusion, pneumothorax, and heart failure. Through practical examples and a structured approach, participants will enhance their ability to make quick and accurate assessments, thereby preparing effectively for upcoming Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) and for their roles as Foundation Year 1 (FY1) doctors on the wards.

When: 21st Oct 2024

Who: Dr Rhea Soni
