Unbelievable Radiology Cases Explained (Stiletto to the Eye, Nail in the Heart & More)

This video was a lot of fun to make. One of the awesome things about radiology is that every once in a blue moon you get a crazy foreign body case. Foreign bodies are essentially things where they are not supposed to be, like a stiletto heel in the eye or a swallowed clamshell in the small bowel. I hope you enjoy this rapid fire review of these shocking foreign body cases.
