One is the study of radios (radiography) and radio style waves where as the other is the person who studies radios.
A radiologist studys radiography or a radiographier studies radiography
Radiologists also have a medical degree such as a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) or a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)
A radiologist is a specialist in the study of radiography.
By getting a degree in radiography/ becoming a radiologist!

chiropractors perform vertebral and extremity adjustments. radiologists deal with medical imaging stuff like xrays and ultrasounds
If you are interested in the career of health care, yes. It is a fairly easy job, but may seem monotonous or they hours may be long. You should be aware of the difference between a radiologist and radiologist technician. The median salary for a radiologist is $361,538 per year. To be a radiologist you must have a bachelor degree and an additional 4 years of medical school plus 4 years of residency and 1 year of fellowship. Their main job is to interpret X-rays. Radiologist technicians are the ones who perform the actual X-ray or sonograms, etc. On average the radiologist technician makes between $55-60,000 annually. You generally only need an associates- bachelor degree in radiology to practice.

No. A radiology technologist is a specialist in using medical imaging equipment (x-ray machines, CT scanners, MRI scanner etc). A radiologist is a doctor that specialises in medical imaging.
radiography
Radiology is the examination of the inner structure of opaque objects using X-rays or other penetrating radiation. In the radiation branch of medical science, radiology is the use of X-rays or other penetrating radiation for examination and/or treatment of medical conditions. Radiography is photography that uses other kinds of radiation than visible light to produce an image on a radiosensitive surface by radiation.
'Direct' radiography implies that the other form is 'indirect' radiography which is indeed the implicit connotation. With digital radiography the results of the X-ray are immediate as the system is connected directly to the computer. In indirect radiography (also called computed radiography) a phosphor plate is used, become radiated, and then are scanned following this exposure to see that X-ray's outcome.
