인사이드 스쿱
직무 책임
- Compile and study information about the patient’s medical history (e.g. from electronic records, patient appointments, or from referring physicians)
- Conduct diagnostic imaging procedures (e.g. MRIs, CT scans, etc.)
- Interpret the images to detect abnormalities that account for the patient’s symptoms
- Record information (e.g. entering data and storing images) from appointments and relay examination results to referring physicians, patients, or families in comprehensive interpretive reports
- Radiologists may also recommend further lines of investigation (e.g. blood testing)
- Apart from diagnosis, scans may also be performed as part of follow-up treatment (e.g. to determine if prescribed therapy is working)
- Radiologists may also be asked to consult with other physicians in multidisciplinary meetings to give their perspective on how scans correlate to the patient’s other diagnostics
- Radiologists may also be expected to supervise trainees; an especially important task since radiology is a highly specialized field

현재 산업 동향
- Mitigating radiation doses: there is an ongoing discussion regarding the risk of radiation exposure during medical imaging processes. While technologies and precautions exist to protect radiologists and their teams, there is great interest in allocating time and money toward developing protocols that will generally decrease radiation doses.
- Using 3D printing and other forms of computer-aided design: 3D models can be very useful for diagnosing patients or instructing surgeons
이 직업에 종사하는 사람들은 어렸을 때 어떤 종류의 일을 즐겼습니까?
- Reading complicated texts that develop perseverance and critical thinking

필요한 교육
- Unlike Radiologic Technicians, Radiologists are physicians who require a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) degree
- Undergraduate majors vary but it’s important to complete prerequisite courses needed for medical school
- Common bachelor’s include healthcare, biology, and physical sciences
- Medical programs are hard to get into. Applicants need the right prerequisites, strong grades, and a great score on the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT)
- Med school applicants must submit letters of recommendation and documentation outlining their leadership attributes and extracurricular activity involvement. There’s usually an interview, too!
- Note, that some programs combine undergraduate studies with medical school, streamlining the academic process and in some cases allowing students to graduate sooner than average
- Medical school consists of two main phases:
- the classroom/lab phase, featuring basic classes like “anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, psychology, medical ethics” and practical skills development such as “learning to take medical histories, examine patients, and diagnose illnesses”
- a supervised work phase in a hospital or clinic, where students practice “diagnosing and treating illnesses through clerkships, or rotations, in a variety of areas, including internal medicine, pediatrics, and surgery”
- Following medical school, Radiologists do a “warmup” postgraduate internship followed by a 4-year residency and subspecialties fellowship
- 당 Radiopaedia, a postgraduate schedule may be as follows:
- Postgraduate year (PGY) 1: clinical internship
- PGY-2 - PGY-5: radiology residency
- PGY-6 - up to PGY-8: subspecialty fellowship
- There are several fellowship options, with varying time frames for completion. Some last a year while others could take 2-3. Options include abdominal radiology, breast imaging, cardiothoracic radiology, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, neuroradiology, nuclear, pediatric, and more
- Radiology residencies are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education
- To obtain optional board certification, Radiologists must pass two exams from the American Board of Radiology - the Qualifying (Core) Exam and Certifying Exam
- Radiologists must be licensed to work in their respective states. Licensure requires M.D.s to pass the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination, and D.O.s to pass the Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensing Examination. States may have additional licensure requirements
