Obviously radiology seems to be more technologically driven than pathology, which can create new avenues for reimbursements and job opportunities. OTOH, radiology is a victim of its own success - the more efficient things become, the more it seems to lower reimbursements (see PACs). So it seems that the new effects of technologies may be negligible if you also consider that there are currently too many radiologists.
One can argue that a lot of radiologists may be retiring soon but that doesn't change the fact that we are also churning out record numbers of new graduates per year either.
BTW people were already complaining of a bad job market online since 2006...
So what is preventing radiology from becoming the next pathology?
I'm not trolling, I'm seriously curious.
