Diagnostic Radiologist

Duties and responsibilities: Radiologists use medical imaging technologies, such as X-rays, CT scans and MRIs, to diagnose and make treatment decisions regarding patients' health problems. Radiologists are fully licensed physicians who complete at least eleven years of higher education, which includes an undergraduate degree program, Doctor of Medicine program and a residency. Additionally, all medical doctors must be licensed to practice. Many choose to become certified by the American Board of Medical Specialties.

Salary: $380,722

Education: Aspiring diagnostic radiologists complete a 4-year bachelor's degree program. Then they must complete four years of medical school followed by several years of residency training in radiology. After completing medical school, diagnostic radiologists in all states must pass a licensing exam. Diagnostic radiologists with sufficient education and experience can apply for American Board of Radiology certification either in the field itself or in four sub-specialties: pediatric radiology; vascular and interventional radiology; neuroradiology; and nuclear radiology. Board certification requires passing oral and written core examinations
