F r e e d o m


one down. many more to go.

i read the other blogs. flipped through the many photos.
sighed at every vacation recounted, sniffed at every tragedy. then i realized,
i myself have not written anything here to give anyone else a picture of the short
3 weeks i spent in the radiology department.

Trust me. everyone has stories to tell.

the first week was a breezy one with many a doctors leading and guiding us new travelers of the radiology hall. We were given a log book, thick empty pages for us to fill with everything and anything we see while we cruise.

How we identify and diagnose a patient without even meeting the patient.(except the ones that come for an MRI a CT, or ultrasound and the occasional HSG)

But technically, all we need is knowledge, a bit of imagination and super-sized eagle eyes to spot the blurry details of a thorax photo.

Exams were a whirlwind of blank looks and possible answers - there were 2 exams. An oral exam on our research paper and such..and the final photo-reading exam. Thankfully i made it through both on friday and jumping straight into psychiatry on monday.

hmm..vague, aren't i? next entry maybe. :D cheers
