Ultrasound for Plantar Fasciitis - should we expect a Radiologist to be there or just a tech?

As the title says. May be getting an ultrasound for plantar fasciitis soon. Ultrasound does have one advantage in that images can be taken in real time with movement (from my understanding, fMRI is not available everywhere anyways).

Should we expect to see a radiologist when the exam is done, or just a technician? Can we request that the radiologist do part of the scanning?

Edit: I guess this also begs the loaded question - how often do Radiologists interact with patients?

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/
