Where this comes from

Abstract

The current U.S. radiologist job market is a buyer's market in comparison with other recent periods, and a radiologist newly entering the workforce or seeking a change in their current position has multiple options for future employment. In this Viewpoint, I highlight factors driving the favorable radiologist job market, summarize broad career pathways (private practice, academic practice, federal government, and <i>locum tenens</i>), and discuss key factors for applicants to consider in selecting among prospective positions.
