Ensuring the radiologist workforce: opportunities during education.
The authors conducted a literature review to better understand the current trends in the medical workforce and, specifically, the effect these have had in radiology. The cyclic nature of the radiology workforce supply has paralleled similar experiences in the general medical profession and other specialties. A review of proven education and training initiatives demonstrates positive workforce effects in particular circumstances. The adaptation of proven education initiatives should enhance the future radiology workforce in both private and academic settings.
