radiologists make good money without blood and knife.. well at least in the u.s. :)

Until their skills are outsourced to imaging clinics abroad (maybe you mean interventional radiology, dunno)…

Turns out there aren't all that many radiologists outside the US the are US qualified. And to release the results in the US, it has to come from a US qualified pathologist.

Deep learning tho

More likely to AIs, although the medical lobby is quite strong and will probably manage to get the benefits of AIs but still require a radiologist to certify.
