I am a USMLE aspirant from Pakistan and have immense interest in radiology but unfortunately it is not an img friendly residency....what should I do?

how to find research position in radiology ? I am graduated non-US IMG

I mean you could probably live without bones and could probably even have a fulfilling career in politics but idk.

CT tech here... still my very favorite clinical history for an exam was "????????" ... literally not joking.. I thought the clever "sick" or "very sick" was bad enough ... but not even bothering giving any words was next level ... no backing at that hospital by the rads so we scanned it anyway .... I'm amazed I lasted a year there

I have (and this is no joke) FIVE 32-inch monitors. I can watch five different pornos at the same time. As a matter of fact, I'm sitting here without pants and in my underwear right now. I love the feeling of silk panties...er...I mean boxer shorts.

Hahahaha - your room is dark

Hi! Did you have to complete a masters?

You r doing good job you should make more videos and vlog and upload it keep it up 👍

Hello Dr Thanks for your advice I’m wondering if I can apply only for preliminary & TY for this incoming cycle And next year apply for advanced DR? Or I have to apply in the same match cycle for both preliminary & advanced ? Us /IMG with home country residency in radiology with 243 CK score Any extra advice /tip for match? Ty

Can someone please explain the concept of pre-med, when do you do(is it during undergrad?) it and do i need it to become a rad?

you guys do ultra sound? i never did! only naeotom alpha :D

Love it thank you !

my son is a spine surgeon, his friend in ortho residency decided to change to radiology because ortho was too physically difficult for him.....6 mo later his wife left him......lol

I love radiology reports and how there are so many differentials provided. My neurosurgeon had me take a brain MRI to a radiologist colleague for a second opinion on the scan. He looked at it and said “It’s recurrent tumor.” And I asked what else, he said “there is nothing else to call it”. I also love the standard “correlate with clinical findings”.

Where are you now?

was it competitive/hard to get your job? hiring process wise.

Aye I need a mentor in radiology. Im starting med school at kcu in july. Are you taking mentees?

I have been to enough MDs that say what I have can't be treated to know that it is time to do something different..

Good video, I’m interested in what made you decide to go with radiology?

FIESTA ? please .... VIBE is king! Specially with Dixon .

Excellent ❤

Young man. My brother got in on the ground floor of MRIs around your age. At home he had a tiny dark office with monitors and a dictating machine. While he was hosting our family reunion, he had to step in a read some spinal MRIs. So, think about that in your future home office. You are so lucky to read the imaging at home. You chose well.

I am an orthopedic surgeon which is one of the hardest fields to enter as an MD graduate. As an MD, getting into an MD medical is unbelievably difficult as anyone in medicine knows. I was on my OB rotation when one one of the DO students took me aside and said regardless of what anyone tells you 99% of us applied to MD school and did not get in. There is also the uncomfortable truth that if they were not white or Asian they could have entered an MD school. Not being an underrepresented minority actually works against you. MDs are the cream of our medical system. If you go to any major University Hospital in America, those are all institutions that have a medical school that grant an MD degree, and you will have an unbelievably high chance of being seen by an MD. MD institutions select only the best applicants with the highest grades, MCAT scores, and everything being equal, as I've met in my colleagues, Olympic gold medalists, and a Navy SEAL. The best of the best. That is how they became an MD. The best residency training programs for doctors in America take first, United States MD graduates who have graduated at the top of their MD classes called 'AOA' or Alpha Omega Alpha. . The top residency training programs and hospitals, as this video doctor says, in America, are MD programs at MD medical schools. If you look at any list of top hospitals in America, they are all MD or allopathic training hospitals with medical schools which grant an MD . This Hasan Minaj joker, as an Indian or Pakistani, probably knows some people who were interested in medicine and found this out for him, and he made it into a cheap joke. All the Ivy League hospitals and medical schools are MD institutions. Sorry about the facts.

Well they are not exactly equal. Usually DO is the plan-B medicine for applicants who couldn't get into an MD school. DO applicants have slightly less competitive MCAT scores and GPAs than MD applicants. More than the numbers, their applications as a whole, are not that competitive for an MD school. Many applicants don't even consider DO schools until they get rejections from MD schools. Most DO schools are not competitive-enough to land them in competitive specialities. So most of them end up in primary care ( still 100% match rate. Yet this is not their dream field). DO schools are easy to start. COCA is so lax on starting a DO school compared to LCME. That's why there are so many for-profit DO schools popping up in the country with so low standards. Finally, that additional "skill" of OMT is just mainly pseudoscience. While MD students learn evidence-based medicine in their curriculum, DO schools fill up their curriculum with this archaic pseudoscience which talks about spirits in the bone, CSF pulsation, cranial manipulation, lymphatic pumping and other BS.

I’m a sophomore in high school with big dreams to become an interventional radiologist or a neuroradiologist. I know it’s a competitive field but I will make it. I will keep my grades up, get into a good college, and an amazing med school (either UPenn’s Med school or John’s Hopkins)

Great Video! I am a non-traditional DO. I was a Registered Nurse for 18 years prior to going to medical school. Back then, there was only 13 DO medical schools

The sound quality was great

Looks like we've got a replacement for Dr. Cellini since he quit KZbin!

FM/EM doc here, I definitely hate the vague radiology reasons and always try to add more. Usually reasons default to the patient triage complaint in EMRs, so if you are barely keeping up... or the nurse gives you a verbal report that sounds concerning and your stuck with a critical patient that's what goes in. Definitely less than ideal, but more of systems problem.

The radiologist is my spirit animal. The world is too bright and scary, give me cozy sunglasses any day

oh fine… telling us to smash a button so we get an injury requiring an appointment and some expensive scan…

Thanks radiology for never finding anything wrong with me. Was reassuring despite the severe pain and uncertainty i was in. Just having something to look at and definitely prove the pain is not caused by some catastrophic joint failure or smth. (Turns out my brain is a little bit of a pos, especially when im stressed. Took a few years and some very confused doctors to find that out. They should really teach more about the sheer power your brain holds over your body)

I like ur content! But you need to get a better microphone. Your volume is to low compared to the videos.

I'm an MRI technologist. We joke about this when they have a lot of orders on a patient! "Looks like we're going on a fishing expedition!" "Yeah, we need to do a whole body workup to see if the patient needs a physical exam."

I wore skeleton socks to an ankle scan a few years ago, my radiologist loved them! Lol

Can you please tell me which colleges give BS/MD to international students with high acceptance rate

Usually it's the original video that is being reacted to which has the too low audio level, here it's the reactor's video that has a too low audio level. Basically they should match.

I've been a high school teacher the past 5 years, mainly working with special needs students. I'm a little burnt out working with the general public and with parents, and feel a lack of intellectual stimulation in my current career. I'm considering changing careers to medicine, and I have a particular interest in diagnostic radiology since I want to work more in the background, have a great work-life balance, and be able to be more selective with who I spend my time with.

Thank you so much for this video It really is a good down to earth personal experience that helps a lot .

This is great reaction content

so, you'd also be making vids pantless 😁

Good reaction 😊

It's great to have input from the actual practitioners depicted in GF's videos. They all seem to be spot on. Love the insights you give. Thanks, Radiology /Dr Parisis

So you get paid to sit at a desk for hours at a computer and wear thigh highs? Never knew femboys and radiologists had so much in common.

Next episode radiologist learns audio leveling. I recommend watching the content through once before publishing (but be warned, do not do it with headphones and do not turn them up to hear).

Do medical schools accept online associates degree from community colleges

How come black and white why not green?

Oh, I love it so much when somebody actually puts the study abstract straight into the video! I'll be honest, when I'm taking the time to look up a study, that's usually what I read. My statistics are rusty and working my way through several pages is usually more than I'm willing to do to mentally check the "looked up the source" box. Thanks, having this commented by a radiologist is super informative fun!

Hi Dr. Parisis! This was so helpful. I am a Cali native - have been accepted into a DO school in Utah and still waitlisted for an MD school in Cali. I am also interested in radiology and researching my prospects and getting accepted into a radiology residency back in Cali if I get rejected from the MD school. Im looking at an uphill climb. Your channel has been so helpful in my planning and I have gleened that I should: get the best grades possible, get the best exam scores possible, take USMLE exams in addition to COMLEX, start building my residency “story” by showing interest in my desired speciality thru organizations volunteering and research, get great LORs from my 3rd year rotations, make connections with desired residency programs. Am I missing anything? Thank you!!!!!

100% agree that more clinical history is better than none. I work in pathology, and 9/10 times we only get things like "Pain" or "Fever" if they've given us anything at all
