Radiology has risen into the 10 highest paid physician specialties, according to data released by Doximity on Thursday.

The $503,564 average annual salary puts radiologists 10th on the list for 2022, with six surgical specialties filling out the leading six. Those include neurosurgeons at No. 1 ($788,313), followed by specialists in thoracic, orthopedic, plastic, vascular, and oral and maxillofacial surgery. Radiation oncologists, cardiologists and urologists round out the top 10.

This number represents a roughly 1.6% uptick from the radiologist salary figure recorded in the previous Doximity survey ($495,451), released in December 2021, when the specialty placed 12th among the highest paid doc types. Radiology has since surpassed gastroenterology and otolaryngology on the list, Doximity data show.
