Radiologist Salary
What is a radiologist?
This is a medical professional who will interpret medical images like x-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, and MRI’s for a physician and other medical professionals. Once everything has been interpreted the radiologist will send the information to the physician who ordered these diagnostic images so the physician will know what is wrong with their patient so they can formulate a treatment plan for that patient.
Job description of a radiologist
Depending on where they are working they may also have a radiation technician working with them who will actually do the imaging tests and then give the diagnostic imaging to the radiologist to interpret. Once this is done the radiologist will share the findings with the primary care physician so they can decide what action needs to be taken. In some cases the physician may ask the radiologist for their advice and take it into consideration. More
