Back again with another 60 second screencast. This time, what’s wrong with this 65 year old farmer with sudden onset breathlessness, and a worrying CXR. Yes, I know it’s far longer than 60 seconds, but that’s more a guideline.

I’ve come up with an idea. 60 second screencasts with a snippet of information to watch when you have, well, 60 seconds spare. I can make an RSS feed so they can be linked with iTunes, or we can keep them locked away behind the firewall. What do you think?

Here’s the first one, about a CXR I saw in clinic yesterday.

Can you work out what's going on here?

The second case of the week is up in the cases pages. This case centres around severe breathlessness in a 48 year old lady – do you know why she’s so breathless?

About DundeeChest 3.0
Born again, phoenix from the flames of DundeeChest and DundeeChest 2.0 comes DundeeChest 3.0. The idea was to provide the medical students of Dundee University Medical School with some support for their respiratory block. Now the students have DundeeChest 4.0 for all their undergraduate needs, and now DC 3.0 is a repository for all things post-graduate. The old undergraduate material is still hidden in here, if you want it.
