Question

What are som benefits and down-side of being a radiologist?

Answer 1

I think the benefits of being a radiologist is you know a great deal of human anatomy, you know how to take x rays or other modalities of radiologic imaging even for your self...

The down side I think if you dont take to correct precations or correct mesures of safety you could be exposed to great amounts of radiation which can cause dangerous diseases.

Answer 2

All the radiologist that I have ever known really love their jobs and have been doing it for many many years. That must tell you something there that they would stick around that long. Must be a lot more pros than cons.

Answer 3

benefits...9-5 job and no call, big bucks

down side...sit in a dark room and look at xrays all day long
