Radiology

Radiology almost always feels like playing "Where's Waldo."

Sometimes it feels like a normal game- where you get the satisfaction of finding him. But most of the time, it feels like somebody gave Waldo an invisibility cloak.

The pointer flashes over an area of grey and wiggles around. You're supposed to be seeing a lung lobe, or a liver lobe, or a lymph node... Mostly, you nod, draw a circle on your notes in that area and hope you'll be able to see it when you sit down to study... Or that, at least, on the exam, you can pick something if they ask you to ID something in that area.
