I recently shadowed an interventional radiologist who mostly does blood vessel work (aneurysms). Admittedly, he was a pessimistic guy, but he painted a grim picture for the future of radiology. In a nutshell he said with neurologists, surgeons, internists, and other specialists learning to read rads, CTs, and MRIs by themselves they aren't needing radiologists to do their own diagnosis.
Is this old news? Is this guy in a bad mood? It makes me worried to enter radiology if you take him by his word. Of course you will need radiologists for things like taking the pictures and doing arteriograms, but if what he says is true radiologists will be in a hard spot.
