Radiologists: what's a day in your life like?

By

Hi all. Premed here. Diagnostic radiology is one of those fields that has always seemed interesting to me and I'd love to hear what your guy's days are like (both residents and attendings). I've already read all other related posts on reddit, but am super interested in hearing more from you guys!!

Here are some questions I'm particularly interested in. If you only want to answer some of the questions, feel free!

  1. Why did you choose radiology? What other specialty would you have chosen?
  2. What does your daily schedule look like?
  3. What is the best part of your job? What is the worst part of your job?
  4. How does the hospital treat you? Do you feel appreciated? Are there any perks?
  5. This may be a little bit subjective, but how do you think your "workload" compares to other specialties? (family is important to me, and I wanted to know if I'd be able to spend enough time with them)
  6. Does life get significantly better/easier as an attending? (aka how happy are you, attendings?)
  7. Do you have any hobbies (or time for hobbies) outside of work? (I've heard a lot of radiologists get pilots licenses lol)
  8. Question for residents: How much do you study at home everyday? (trying to see if I need to learn how to read before applying)
  9. Extra credit: I always see jokes about "correlate clinically". What in the world does this joke mean! lol

Thanks to anyone who replies [I know you all are busy, so no big deal if not] :)

Please note: I initially posted a version of this the Residency subreddit since some might not see it here. If its looked down upon to post in multiple places, please let me know and I can delete. Thanks!

AI for radiology - A survey

By
Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
