Radiology for the people.
The general population of developing nations has not received sufficient radiological diagnostic services. Surveys will pinpoint the areas of greatest need. The best course seems to be to provide many basic diagnostic units of simple design rather than only a few sophisticated centers. The role of the radiologist is to oversee physician-technician training, equipment design, and system development. Only with a well-planned, comprehensive approach can the benefits of modern radiology reach the greatest number of people.
