Radiology is an exciting and dynamic field. For me personally, the procedures are the most exciting. For example, we recently introduced Y-90 radioembolization at our hospital. This provides a new opportunity to treat liver cancers and prolong lives.

Perhaps the most exciting thing for me personally when I was a nurse was to gain a personal connection with a patient and know that I not only made a difference in their treatment or recovery but that I might have made a difference in their lives. To see someone years later and hear them say I remember you and what you did for me is the real reason that someone should pursue a career in medicine. Knowing that your career choice makes a difference in people's lives in both exciting and rewarding.
