Are Imaging Jobs Going Abroad?
Hospitals have begun to call on doctors in India, for example, for preliminary readings of computed tomography (CT), x-ray, ultrasound and other scans. Proponents argue that this allows reading of emergency scans in the middle of the night without having to wake in-house physicians. Others fear it will lead to wholesale outsourcing of these and other tasks. Here, we explore the evolution of, and the some of the issues associated with, the offshore radiology trend. The rise of offshore radiology...
