    BSc Radiology graduates cannot work as radiologists directly, as the role of a radiologist requires a medical degree (MBBS) followed by specialised training in Radiology, typically in the form of a PG degree like MD (Doctor of Medicine) or DNB (Diplomate of National Board) in Radiology. 

    BSc Radiology course graduates are trained to operate imaging equipment, assist in diagnostic imaging procedures, and produce high-quality medical images, but they are not qualified to interpret those images or diagnose conditions, which is the responsibility of a radiologist.
