''Radiology is the science that uses medical imaging to diagnose and sometimes also treat diseases within the body.''
Also use of medical imaging techniques such as x-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear medicine, positron emission tomography (PET), fusion imaging, and ultrasound involved.

EDUCATION REQUIRED :
Diagnostic Radiologists must complete prerequisite undergraduate education, four years of medical school to earn a medical degree (MBBS), one year of internship, and 3 years of MD radiology (In USA its 4 years after USMLE ) training.
         After residency, Radiologists may pursue one or two years of additional specialty fellowship training.
       So its 9 to 10 years after high school but its totally worth it.

TOP COLLEGES (INDIA):
1. JIPMER , Pondicherry ( FEE around 35k )
2. Maulana Azad Medical College, [MAMC] New Delhi ( fee around 50k )

4. University College of Medical Sciences, [UCMS] New Delhi ( around 20k)
5. Institute of Post Graduate Medical Education And Research, [IOPGMEAR] Kolkata.
      
          Plus if you are looking for private colleges like Manipal University then fee would be around 60 to 70 lakhs in total .

   TOP COLLEGES (USA);
University of Washington (UW)
University of California - San Francisco (UCSF)
Indiana University (IU)


SCOPE:
        Ranked as the #22 best job in health care support by US News, a career in radiology working as radiological technologist is a smart choice.
         The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts more than 20,700 new jobs in this field over the next seven years.
          So the field of radiologic technology is expected to grow faster than average for all occupations.

                           GOOD LUCK

Radiology is a branch of medicine that deals with diagnostic images of anatomic structures made through the use of electromagnetic radiation or sound waves and also the treatment of diseases through the use of radioactive compounds. Radiology is divided into 2 parts; diagnostic and interventional radiology. For Radiology, after the 12th exam, you can pursue diploma courses, Bsc course, certification courses or master courses. There are many great colleges in India good in Radiology, in fact most colleges good in medicine are equally good in Radiology. There is an increased need of educated and professional radiology technologists in hospitals which the demand will keep on increasing.
