Coke bottle

If you've read back to some of my older posts (or if you frequent Fmylife.com), you've no doubt seen this picture:
It remains my absolute favourite picture of all time, and it's only made better by the fact that it was my patient and I took it.  It's priceless because it is unmistakable.  Even someone who has never seen a pelvis X-ray can tell exactly what it is.

I guess the picture inspired Noor (also known as NoorFML from Fmylife.com) who apparently is quite the artist.  She drew this for me and just sent it, and I felt I had to share it (with her permission, of course).


This was a very nice surprise, so thanks very much Noor.  If anyone else has any pictures like this to share, I would freely welcome (and share) them.

    2. I took art classes since 6th grade. That's seven years of art class. Unfortunately, I did not sign up for any art classes in college because I didn't want to draw naked people.
