Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A radiologist is a physician specializing in the interpretation of medical images, such as X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans. A radiographer is a technologist who performs imaging procedures. A radiologic technologist and radiologist assistant may also be involved in imaging procedures, but they do not have the same level of training and expertise in image interpretation as a radiologist.
