NPs in North Carolina attempting to get privileges to "order, perform, supervise, and interpret diagnostic studies". Does not exclude MR, CT, etc. So, yes- if not excluded, would presumably include it.

This is called the "CARES" act. Radiologist must be all over this.
For that matter, Radiologists should stand with all of medicine in opposing every aspect of this.
In California, a similar bill, AB890, contained a provision that would allow NPs to read ultrasound, x-ray, and mammography. (even though non-physicians cannot, by federal regulation, interpret mammography).
The California Radiologic society negotiated, and got that wording removed. The price was that they (CRS) would support the rest of the bill. I don't think they should have done that, although there are certainly reasons that they should have.

AI for radiology - A survey

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/
