My question about these kinds of scans is that under normal procedures, let’s say an orthopedic issue, a radiologist looks at the scan but wouldn’t an orthopedic doctor also look?

For a more general scan is it just a radiologist?

If so it seems like a lesser examination.

Radiologists >>>> ortho bros

at reading scans. Not even close.

Being alive is correlated with 100% of deaths.
Between one breath and the next, there are no guarantees.
You won't believe what happens next!
