Yes you can study Radiology even if you don't have advanced Maths. Radiology need more Science like Biology, Physics and Chemistry not so much Maths.
Maths is useful for some Physics ideas but you don't need it to study Radiology.

No Radiology graduates are not considered a doctor. Radiology graduates are only professionals who operate the machines and not prescribe medicines to patients.
To become a doctor, candidates go for MBBS and go through a tough curriculum of medicine education.
