No, a B.Sc. Radiology graduate is not considered a doctor. After completing B.Sc. Radiology, you become a radiology technologist or radiographer, whose main role is to operate imaging equipment like X-ray, MRI, CT scan, ultrasound machines, etc., and assist doctors in diagnosis.
To be called a “doctor” in this field, you need to pursue an MBBS and then specialize in Radiology (MD/DNB in Radiology).
So in short, B.Sc. Radiology makes you a healthcare professional, but not a doct
or.

No, students can not become surgeons after completing their MD course from AIIMS Bibinagar. The MD course is basically a research-focused or diagnosis-focused qualification. After completing the MD course, a student can become a Medical Researcher, Specialist Physician, etc. To become a surgeon, students are required to complete a Master of Surgery (MS) programme or equivalent, followed by a surgical residency and potentially a super-specialty MCh degree.
