In most cases, a doctor who specializes in radiology works behind the scenes, interpreting images and recommending treatment. But a few times I have seen a radiologist face-to-face in the process of having received tests like ultrasounds, CT's, MRI's, mammograms, x-rays, and isotope scans. Have you ever seen a radiologist (not just a radiology technician)?
Yes, I have seen a physician who is a radiologist.
