TheDude Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I am echoing what everyone else said, but sh*t happens. CXR's can be clear as day or clear as mud. I look at tons of CXR's every day (CV Surg) and heck even my attending (31 year surgeon) has missed things. I think Sas said it above where looking for a rib fracture is damn near impossible unless its obvious, well, to add to that, so can a pneumo be damn near impossible to spot on occasion. You did the right thing and tried to contact him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
