What happens when the radiology practice you want to join does not exist? For Dr. Tarang Patel, the answer was to build it himself.

In this episode of The Radiology Report, Daniel Arnold sits down with Dr. Patel, a radiologist, U.S. Air Force veteran, founder of Radiology One, creator of the Doctor Money Matters podcast, and founder of the American Radiologists Facebook group.

Dr. Patel shares the experiences that shaped his career, from growing up in a physician family and serving in the military to helping doctors navigate personal finance and creating an online community of nearly 8,000 radiologists.

The conversation explores what today’s radiologists should consider when evaluating job opportunities, why compensation is only one part of choosing the right practice, and what ultimately motivated Dr. Patel to leave an established position and launch a radiologist-owned company.

They also discuss the realities of building a practice from the ground up, including technology, credentialing, contracting, recruiting, AI adoption, and creating a model that gives radiologists greater flexibility, ownership, and influence.

Dr. Patel closes with practical advice for trainees entering a strong but cyclical job market and explains why asking the right questions today can help build a more sustainable career for the future.

What is it really like to become a radiologist?

In this episode of The Joys of Radiology, Dr. Gautam Agrawal sits down with three Johns Hopkins radiology residents, Dr. Selin Ocal, Dr. Molly Pasque, and Dr. Shefali Jain, for an honest conversation about training, mentorship, AI, and the moments that make radiology so rewarding.

They share how they first discovered radiology, the misconceptions they had before residency, and why the specialty is far more collaborative, social, and subjective than many people realize. They also discuss how confidence develops one case at a time, the role of case-based learning and oral boards, and why mistakes can become some of the most memorable learning experiences.

The conversation also explores what AI could mean for the future of radiology, how radiologists can remain visible and valuable as clinical consultants, and the patient cases that reminded each resident why their work matters.

Whether you are a medical student considering radiology, a resident navigating training, or an experienced radiologist reflecting on your own career, this episode offers a thoughtful look at the joy, growth, and responsibility that come with learning to see what others cannot.

In this episode of The Radiology Report Podcast, Daniel Arnold sits down with Ohad Arazi, incoming CEO of Subtle Medical, to discuss the future of AI in medical imaging, the challenges facing radiology workflows, and the leadership lessons he's learned from more than 20 years in healthcare technology.

From the early days of PACS to today's AI-driven imaging ecosystem, Ohad shares why some of the biggest opportunities in radiology may exist before an image ever reaches the radiologist. The conversation explores MRI acceleration, workflow optimization, imaging operations, startup leadership, and how healthcare organizations can unlock greater efficiency, image quality, and patient outcomes through innovation.

Whether you're a radiologist, imaging leader, healthcare executive, or technology innovator, this episode offers a unique perspective on where radiology is headed next.

In this episode of The Joys of Radiology, host Dr. Gautam Agarwal sits down with Dr. Erin Gomez, Assistant Professor of Radiology and Program Director of Diagnostic and Molecular Imaging Residencies at Johns Hopkins, for a conversation about building a meaningful life and career in medicine.

Before becoming an award-winning radiologist and educator, Dr. Gomez was an engineering student working with NASA contractors at the Kennedy Space Center. What followed was an unexpected journey into radiology, where she discovered a passion for imaging, education, mentorship, and leadership.

Together, they explore what brings joy to radiology, how great educators inspire the next generation of physicians, the evolving role of AI in radiology education, and the importance of creating a sustainable career without sacrificing the things that matter most outside of medicine.

From teaching anatomy and mentoring residents to balancing academic medicine with family life, Dr. Gomez shares thoughtful insights on finding purpose, embracing growth, and leading with empathy. Most importantly, she leaves listeners with a simple but powerful piece of advice:

"Run toward fear."

In this inaugural episode of The Joys of Radiology, host Dr. Gautam Agarwal sits down with renowned educator and radiologist Dr. Marc Gosselin for a wide-ranging conversation on what truly shapes a great physician.

From training at McGill University, the University of Vermont, and Stanford University to decades of teaching and mentoring, Dr. Gosselin shares hard-earned wisdom on learning to see rather than simply memorize, questioning medical orthodoxy, preventing burnout, and why your first years in practice can be the most transformative of your career.

Most importantly, he delivers a message every trainee needs to hear:

“The residency doesn’t make you good. You make yourself good.”

This episode is packed with insight for medical students, residents, fellows, practicing radiologists, and anyone navigating purpose, growth, and professional fulfillment in medicine.

• How to choose the right residency or first job
• Why curiosity matters more than prestige
• The hidden causes of physician burnout
• Why mentorship changes everything
• How to build a meaningful career in radiology
• Learning to challenge dogma and think independently

In this episode of The Radiology Report Podcast, Dr. Dor Shoshan, Founder & CEO, shares how he went from radiology resident to founder of ContrastConnect, building a platform for virtual contrast supervision now used by imaging centers nationwide.

He discusses the challenges of scaling contrast coverage, how virtual supervision works in practice, and the impact of CMS making virtual supervision permanent in 2026. The conversation also explores the future of radiology operations and offers advice for residents interested in entrepreneurship.

On this episode of the Radiology Report Podcast, Daniel Arnold sat down with Dr. Frank Lexa, Academic Neuroradiologist, former Wharton professor, and long-time leader at the American College of Radiology’s Radiology Leadership Institute, to talk candidly about what comes next for the specialty. From leadership development, reimbursement pressure, and the growing complexity of imaging, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the forces shaping radiology right now.

In this episode of The Radiology Report Podcast Report, host Daniel Arnold sits down with with Dr. Laurel Lemasters MD, founder of Imago MRI, who is pioneering a new way to imaging: one where patients have clear access, transparent pricing, faster answers, and a radiologist who still believes in being a doctor first. From building a self-pay MRI model to reshaping the patient experience with quicker access and earlier reporting, Dr. Lemasters is putting patients back in charge and redefining what modern imaging can look like.
