OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to report 1999 data on the job market in diagnostic radiology detected using a help wanted index of job advertisements and to profile trends in practice type, location, and subspecialty using our previously published data as a basis for comparison.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. Each advertised job for a diagnostic radiologist in the American Journal of Roentgenology and Radiology between January 1991 and December 1999 was coded by practice type, location, and subspecialty.

RESULTS. In 1999, 3926 positions were advertised for diagnostic radiologists, representing a 75% increase from 1998. Private practice jobs, which represented 53% of advertisements from 1991 through 1994 and 64% of ads from 1995 through 1998, increased to 66% of ads in 1999. Geographic trends in 1999 were characterized by a relative increase of jobs in the Midwest and California and a decrease in percentage (but increase in total number of ads) in the Northeast and Southwest. The demand for subspecialists continued in 1999, with only 34% of ads placed for general radiologists. A relative increase in demand for neuroradiologists, mammographers, and abdominal imagers was also seen in 1999 in comparison with previously published data from 1995 through 1998.

CONCLUSION. The demand for diagnostic radiologists continues to rise, with more ads placed in 1999 than any other year from 1991 through 1998. Using a help wanted index of job advertisements, we have created an indicator of changes in the diagnostic radiology job market with specific reference to practice type, geographic location, and subspecialty training.
