A member asked:
What happens if you do for example a diagnostic radiography course at usyd, does that mean you are a radiologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A radiologist is a physician with four years of medical school, followed by four years of residency training to become a general radiologist, then one or two additional years if a subspecialty such as neuroradiology, musculoskeletal radiology, breast radiology, is chosen.
