Welcome to RadSIGN’s Chest X-Ray Teaching Series!

Radiology Student Interest Group Nepal (RadSIGN) successfully conducted the first session on a three part series about Chest Xray interpretation on June 23, 2025.

In this session, Dr. Rishi Agrawal (Associate Professor, Thoracic Imaging, and creator of the YouTube channel ‪@ThoracicRadiology‬ walks us through a step-by-step approach to interpreting chest X-rays. Whether you're a medical student, junior doctor, or radiology trainee, this lecture will help you master:

✅ What are opacities and consolidations on X-ray
✅ How to identify atelectasis and air bronchograms
✅ A systematic approach to chest X-ray interpretation
✅ Understanding tracheal deviation, hilar masses, and the cardiothoracic ratio
✅ Pulmonary artery, aortic abnormalities, and more

Learn how to develop a reliable, structured method for reading CXRs and avoid common pitfalls.
