The survey, published Jan. 30 in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, included 2,302 participants and was conducted between December 2022 and January 2023. 

Here are five findings:

1. The majority of participants reported making between $400,000 and $499,999 per year. Those who worked in independent private practices were more likely than those in academic practices to make more than $700,000 annually.

2. Radiologists in rural practices were more likely than those in urban practices to make more than $500,000.

3. Academic practices offered more paid time off and better-paid family/medical leave support than other practice types.

4. Hospitals and national practices were more likely to offer malpractice insurance than academic practices (85%, 89% vs. 77%, respectively).

5. Understaffing was more likely to be reported in academic (77%) and private practices (67%) than in hospital-based practices (47%).
