This forum is really just an echo chamber. Very little concept of what is going on in the outside world.
The dumpster fire that we perceive to be EM, is really just a part of a much larger dumpster fire in medicine right now. It's completely faulty thinking that because EM has it bad that other specialties have it better. It's simply not true. We can talk about pediatrics, internal medicine, surgery (I have close friends in these circles that are all possibly unemployed next year), but since this topic is about radiology we can talk about that.
There is most definitely a push to increase teleradiology services due to cost savings. I agree that the threat of AI is really not a real and palpable one at this juncture. But when ED volumes are down, what do you think radiologists are doing when we aren't ordering pan scans? Ask the radiology residents at your home institution what happened to the number of reads that they were performing? Are Medicare cuts just going to hurt us in EM, but imaging studies are going to be reimbursed just as much if not more? Wrong. Also, the corporatization that is plaguing EM is projected to wreck radiology as well. Midlevels are already encroaching into IR, although I do agree nowhere close to the degree as EM. The list goes on and on...
Do you really think the market forces that have crippled EM have not affected other specialities? You think the people in the C-suite are sparing radiology at the expense of anyone else? Wrong. Everyone is fair game.
Radiology is a great specialty for a variety of reasons. I briefly flirted with doing IR at some point in medical school. That being said, the clinical medicine was and still is a draw to me to EM. If you are having doubts about EM, it's reasonable to contemplate radiology. But you could also just be getting cold feet now that the match is drawing near. That happened to me, as well as a lot of people.
Take your time over the next several months to mull it over. If you end up doing EM for a year and switching, it's not the end of the world. But just like you may end up regretting NOT doing radiology, you may be sitting in a reading room some day wishing you were the one who was clinically correlating.
