Definition

  • A radiologist is a qualified healthcare professional who works in radiography. With radiography first being developed in 1895 by the German professor of physics, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, because of the technical problems involved in the use of radiation, it became necessary to have special training for people who use the equipment.
