Abstract
Practicing radiologists, radiation oncologists, and trainees were surveyed regarding the current state of subspecialization in practice and in training curricula. The authors present the results of these surveys, establish trends compared with previous survey data, and compare the plans of trainees with current postgraduate practice. Subspecialization is increasing in both radiology and radiation oncology. There remain substantial numbers of practitioners who perform work they deem "general" in nature. The authors also present a method to more accurately measure subspecialization and workload.Mesh:
