A Comparison of Neuroradiology and Pediatric Radiology Job Boards
1Department of Radiology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Blvd, Dallas, TX 75390.
Purpose:
ACR workforce surveys have suggested progressive recovery in the number of available jobs for radiologists over the past several years. The purpose of this study was to ascertain the status of jobs available in diagnostic radiology as well as to analyze the content of the job boards of general radiology and subspecialty societies with the intent of uncovering differences in posting preferences to better steer job seekers.
Methods:
The content of the online job boards hosted by the SPR, ASNR, ACR, and RSNA was evaluated on 365 consecutive days between July 1, 2016 and June 30, 2016.
Results:
Job growth was demonstrated on the ACR Career Center, which peaked in the number of postings in early March. A total of 72% of the jobs posted on the SPR Career Center were academically affiliated compared to 55% on the ASNR job listings. On average, only 3% of the jobs on the ACR Career Center were for pediatric radiologists whereas 13% were designated for neuroradiologists. Fellowship postings peaked in mid-autumn for the SPR Career Center and mid-spring for the ASNR job listings. Attending-level positions remained online for 3.01 months on the SPR Career Center and 1.80 months for the ASNR job listings. Approximately half of the advertisements on the RSNA Career Connect website reflect fellowship openings.
Conclusion:
The online ACR Career Center showed growth in the number of radiology job openings through the 2016-2017 academic year. Subspecialty job boards in pediatric radiology and neuroradiology were more likely to advertise academically affiliated positions than the ACR Career Center.

Multiple Comparison Tests
It would be easy to compare two samples using a significance alpha level of 0.05. In other words, there is only one sample pair to be compared. However, it would be difficult to identify a significantly different sample if the number...
Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
