The demand for clinical radiologists in the UK is rising significantly, but the current workforce is struggling to keep up with this growing need. According to the 2023 clinical radiology workforce census report by the Royal College of Radiologists (RCR), there is a critical shortage of doctors who play a key role in diagnosing and treating serious illnesses such as cancer and stroke. As per the report, while the radiology workforce grew by 6% in 2023, the demand for CT and MRI reporting increased by 11%.

Becoming a clinical radiologist in the UK is a rewarding career choice as the profession continues to face increasing demand. The Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) exams provide a pathway to registering with the UK’s General Medical Council (GMC) and practicing as a clinical radiologist. This qualification involves successfully completing three exams in the following sequence: FRCR Part 1, FRCR Part 2A and FRCR Part 2B.
