Report written by
If the report was written by a radiologist, I would write, for example,
Report written by A Waddington, radiologist.
I know you wrote radiographer, but isn't it usually radiologists who report on X-rays?
If it had been written by a doctor, I would write:
Report written by Dr ...
Report written by A Waddington, radiologist.
I know you wrote radiographer, but isn't it usually radiologists who report on X-rays?
