First of all, a quote I heard from a radiology attending during my surgery rotation: "Patient contact is not the same thing as patient care."
On my radiology rotation at my school, there are a few areas where I've seen radiology residents have contact with patients:
-ultrasound-guided biopsies/FNA
-CT-guided procedures
-performing ultrasound examinations
-GI studies
-and of course, if you are interested, there is Interventional Radiology
- mammo patients to discuss results of a diagnostic mammogram
- mammo procedures, stereotactic biopsies and localizations
- US guided biopsies e.g. thyroid or liver
- fluoroscopy studies
