To begin, I am not trying to stir up trouble. I am an MS2 here in the US who is really interested in radiology, but also hear about "outsourcing" and how there is the potential to have all of the radiographs sent to places like India as a way to save money. Therefore, I don't want to go through a five year residency, practice for five more years, and be out of a job. And I am relatively new to this forum, so if this topic has been beaten to death, could somebody please direct me to the correct thread? Or if this topic is up for debate...then what would keep hospitals from sending all of their images to foreign radiologists to do the interpretation or "reading" for a lot less money? Is there any legislation to prevent this from happening? Thank your for insight and knowledge.
