"My name is Chris Looney I'm a diagnostic radiologist here at Heartland Hospital in St. Joseph, Missouri. What a radiologist does, he's the physician, the medical doctor that interprets x-rays. We read cat scans, we read MRI's, ultrasounds, and then regular x-rays that you would get if you hurt your foot. Diagnostic radiology residency is a four or five year program that is at maybe fifty major teaching hospitals in the United States, that trains physicians in the area of radiology. It covers all of the imaging modalities like I mentions, CT's, MR, ultrasound, nuclear medicine as well as things like interventional radiology ,neuroradiology, etcetera.
