It is reported that Mr. Chanaka Dharmawickrama, President of the Government Radiology Technologists Association, stated that due to the shortage of radiologists, the X-ray and CT scan activities of government hospitals are in a dangerous situation and the country needs 400 radiologists.
He further mentions that although the X-ray and CT scan equipment is repaired, there is no staff to operate the equipment.
But a cabinet paper was submitted to get approval for the recruitment of radiologists, and once the approval is received, the recruitment process will begin.
