Hey guys, I've been trolling resident forums for a while as a naive first year who frankly doesn't know what he likes. We are currently doing or MSK section and learning a lot of anatomy. I find the anatomy enjoyable overall, but at times it does become tedious. Anyways, Rads is something that interested me, I do like looking at radiographs and trying to find the pathology, if there is any 😉, and a little mix of procedures and opportunity for IR is really appealing. Today I tried looking at some MRs of the GH joint and rotator cuff and it was completely disorienting to me. Honestly I could really only identify major land marks and had a hard time even orienting myself as to what direction/axis I was looking at.
I guess this gave me an appreciation for the difficulty of Rads but it also made me wonder if there is a certain..type of person that excels at it. I feel like because this content is super fresh I should be able to do well with it (also realizing I have no clue of what I do/don't know beyond the last 3 months of school).
I plan on shadowing a radiologist as soon as I learn a bit more anatomy to see if it's my thing, but any input now would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
