Some of my radiological heroes would report a staggering 30,000 to 40,000 radiographs a year. The scanners could reconstruct images faster than we could report them. Some even [startled gasp] gave up reporting plain radiographs. A good day five to 10 years ago was reporting 40 cross-sectional imaging studies.
