Hey guys,
I’m an M1 at a reputable USMD school interested in going into radiology. I have shadowed in both IR and DR and I found both interesting. I like reading images and I like the broad scope of the field. I know IR is hyper competitive so I could definitely see myself being happy in DR also.
However, I am not particularly interested/good at physics, and I’m not very good with computers. I was able to get As in undergrad physics and I can use any software but I mean I’m not writing programs for computers and stuff like that.
Are any rads residents/attendings this way also? I know there is some sort of physics curriculum to be completed during residency but how intense is it? How integrated is physics with your everyday work?
Thanks!
