Radiology in modern medicine usually need MBBS or same, then do special course in Radiology.

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 must have it to study Radiology.

Usually, students who want to do Radiology choose Science stream with Physics, Chemistry and Biology (PCB). These subjects give basic knowledge to understand medicine and help for later Radiology or other medical study.

Also, besides school marks, doing practice work in hospitals, helping as volunteer, or watching doctors work can make your learning better and help for future.
