How I Read a Chest CT

This is for first year residents, starting out on their chest rotation. This is the order in which I read a chest CT. When you first start out, it is important to stick to a script so that you read studies the same way each time. It may be beneficial to have a checklist that you follow to make sure you aren't missing anything.
