Hi, I'm Dr Naveen Sharma and I'm a Consultant Radiologist based in the UK. Before becoming a radiologist I found the topic really daunting and to be honest had no idea what I was looking at when faced with an X-ray or scan on the ward. So in 2018 I started an Instagram account teaching radiology which I tried to make as simple as possible and it seemed to be helpful, now reaching nearly 400k followers.
I started this UA-cam channel to try and go into a bit more depth so as well as short case videos you'll find more detailed guides on how to look at scans and X-rays - basically this is all the stuff that I wish someone had told me when I was learning so hope it comes into use for anyone who is trying to learn some radiology.
I am trying to post something new here each week so if you find it useful, please support me by subscribing and also please do leave a comment to let me know what you would find useful to see on the channel.

Chest X-Ray breakdown: understanding mediastinal contour
A male in his 30s presents with chest pain. What does this PA chest X-Ray show?
OESOPHAGEAL DILATATION - ACHALASIA
👨🏽💻 The key to this X-Ray is spotting the abnormal right sided mediastinal contour and understanding when you see this involve the whole length of the right side of the mediastinum this could represent oesophageal dilatation. Placing this outside of the middle mediastinum lends weight to this .
👨🏽💻Achalasia is an oesophageal motility disorder characterized by impaired relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter and absent peristalsis in the esophageal body. Imaging typically reveals dilation of the esophagus with a tapered narrowing at the gastroesophageal junction, giving rise to a classic “bird’s beak” appearance on barium swallow.

A male in his 50s presents with acute breathlessness. What does the X-Ray show? HYDROPNEUMOTHORAX AND RIGHT LUNG OPACITIES 👨🏽💻Another tricky X-Ray! There is a lot going on on this X-Ray and so it shows the importance of a systematic approach. Firstly there is a hydropneumothorax: we can see gas in the pleural space evidenced by a lack of lung markings and pleural line. At the right lung base w...

A female smoker in her 50s presents with a cough and has a chest X-Ray. What does it show? OBSCURED LUNG NODULE 👨🏽💻This X-Ray is all about spotting nodules in tricky areas. If the nodule had been slightly higher or lower this would have been an easy spot but given it was behind the clavicle means it was a lot more tricky 👨🏽💻 Some review areas on chest X-Ray need you to assess the central stru...

You’re awesome
Thx, this was extremely helpful. Isn't it better to look for the gastric bubble if there is no label for ap or pa?
Ливер? так на видео живот, интересно
❤❤❤
I know the feeling. I did that until I tried radiology, and everything just clicked! I am now in my 3rd year of Radiology. I have 2 and a half years left to become a specialist.
Now these are what I call Kawaii (beautiful) lessons!! A lot of info in 2 mins, connecting all the dots... Amazing!!
😂😂😅
Hi, I would like to know your opinion about my case if possible
Japan entered the chat
does it cause by smoking
I’m becoming a radiology therapist in the future!!
😂😂😂😂😂
this video was helpful!
This is an extremely well done video!
I want more videos like thiz
thanks very much!
Thank you for doing this video! It is excellent!
At least it’s better than sitting in a dark room reading images but doing nothing much else😂
Excellent video! Very helpful!
Thanks for all doctor ❤ Can you plz tell me what app do you use to create these videos ?
Thank you for useful lecture. Do the dots I see at 0:21 just mean nothing? Are they just defects? I see them a lot and sometimes I get confused ;
Bilateral lower lobe pneumonia possibly with a small rt-sided abscess
Y’all can be real dramatic with these hide-n-seek games 😂😂😂.
Ryt on point 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow...our bodies work in mysterious ways
can u tell me why is it hard?
Proud
Nice one !
Sounds similar.
Very nice ❤
Tq
Great case
Thanks for watching!
ever heard of a Lateral CXR...???
Yes 😂 In some places in the world laterals are not routinely done, like the UK. Not with any good reason it should be said. So a lot of my content focuses on how to get the best out of a frontal film. In this case a dilated oesophagus has a typical appearance on a frontal X-Ray so I really wanted to highlight that
You make me love Radiology ❤
So so good
Educative!
Is the trachea shift to right side?? Am i right or wrong?
You are right. If you look at the coronal slices of the CT scan on the video you’ll see superiorly the oesophagus is very dilated and quite central pushing the trachea to the right before the oesophagus takes a position on the right side of the mediastinum more inferiorly
What makes the esophagus shift lateral to the right?
Pneumothorax, Fibrosis
It’s a good question, I’ve only ever seen it move to the right. There may be a more accomplished answer but I think there are too many structures on the left for it to move that side once it becomes dilated
Why not hiatal hernia?
Good thought although I’ve never seen a hiatus hernia extend up to the clavicle
👌 Well explained
Thanks for watching!
Amazing work! Please keep on doing them! Thank you so much for helping us!
Good case and very nicely explained 👍
Love it!!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I found you on threads and have subscribed 👍
