Pursuing an MD in Cardiology after completing a BSc in Cardiovascular Technology is not typically a direct path. To specialize in Cardiology as a medical doctor, you would generally need to pursue MBBS. After completing MBBS, you would need to undergo further specialisation (MD or MS) in cardiology through a residency program. This pathway involves several years of rigorous medical education and clinical training to become a qualified cardiologist.

Yes, a BSc in Cardiovascular Technology graduate can use a stethoscope as part of their training and clinical practice. While their primary focus is on operating specialised equipment for cardiovascular diagnostics and procedures, cardiovascular technologists are trained in basic patient assessment skills, including auscultation (listening to heart and lung sounds) using a stethoscope. This skill allows them to gather important diagnostic information and collaborate effectively with healthcare teams during patient evaluations and procedures.

No, Radiologists cannot perform surgery.Radiologists are primarily trained in medical imaging techniques and the interpretation of radiological images to diagnose diseases and conditions. While they do not typically perform surgical procedures themselves, their role is crucial in providing diagnostic information that guides surgical decisions. Radiologists work closely with surgeons and other healthcare professionals to plan surgical interventions based on imaging findings.
