@houseofmedicalski: 🫁 Mastering Chest X-Rays in 5 Simple Steps! 🩻 Never get overwhelmed reading a CXR again. Always stick to the ABCDE systematic approach: A – Airway: Is the trachea midline? Is the carina visible? B – Breathing: Check lung fields for opacities, consolidation, or pneumothorax. C – Cardiac: Evaluate heart size (\text{CTR} < 50\%) and heart borders. D – Diaphragm: Look for sharp costophrenic angles and diaphragm height. E – Everything Else: Check bones, soft tissue, lines, and free air under the diaphragm. 💡 A systematic approach saves lives and prevents missed findings! 🔖 Bookmark this post for quick clinical revision! #medicalstudent #medicaldoctor #doctor #nurse #nurses
