Acad Radiol
December 2003
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates why junior academic radiologists leave academia for private practice and suggests improvements to retain them.
- Out of 2000 surveys sent, only 132 responded; many cited low pay and insufficient academic time as key reasons for leaving, with a significant percentage feeling their decision to leave was beneficial.
- To enhance retention, the study recommends limiting clinical duties to 32 hours a week, protecting academic time, improving mentorship, and addressing income disparity.
