DIAGNOSTIC RADIOLOGY: Radiologists review and interpret x-rays, CT scans, MRIs, PET scans and other types of imaging tests. However, there are some imaging tests that radiologists typically do not review. Cardiologists usually review their own echocardiograms and stress tests and Ob/Gyns usually review their own ultrasounds. Like Pathologists, Radiologists often do not directly interact with patients. Typically a technician performs the scan for the radiologist to review. (more information)
