...Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime. - Chinese Proverb P.S. An ideal teacher: * educates without boasting. * remains vulnerable and shares his story. * listens without judging. * shares without expecting return. * gives orders without bossing. * admits and accepts to know more. * shows compassion. * shares God's love.

Though, to see the lungs and the cardiac shadow, PA view is better compared to AP view (for bones). it is not possible bedside in an ICU because x-ray can only be emitted from above the bed (from below the bed - iron rods and sheets wil...
