Emergency departments that employ nonphysician practitioners probably improve patient access to timely care. However, these EDs also order 5.3% more imaging than their physician-only counterparts.

More than four-fifths of healthcare provider organizations are shorthanded of allied health professionals, and the job title with the most unfilled positions in the category is radiologic technologist.

Most if not all diagnostic radiologists should be capable of performing numerous image-guided procedures, according to a task force jointly convened by the American College of Radiology and the Society of Interventional Radiology.

At scientific journals focused on medical imaging, 82% of editors-in-chief and 30% of editorial board members receive financial compensation for these side jobs.

The American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS), Strategic Radiology and Bracco Diagnostics have separately elevated early- and mid-career radiologists to heightened educational opportunities.
