Yes, doctors in radiology may need a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) registration if they prescribe controlled substances as part of their practice. While radiologists primarily interpret imaging studies, if they are involved in procedures that require sedation or pain management, having a DEA number is necessary to prescribe medications legally. However, not all radiologists will require a DEA registration, depending on their specific roles and responsibilities.

Why does a physician need a DEA?

A physician needs a DEA number to prescribe controlled substances. This is to help monitor the dispensing of controlled substances to the public.The DEA Form 224 (new applications), lists the schedules of controlled substances that the physician wants to handle. The physician must first be authorized by the state to handle those drugs before the DEA will authorize it. The physician will only be allowed to handle those drugs on their application.Registration must be renewed every 3 years. With the DEA number, a physician can be tracked easily if they are prescribing too much of a controlled substance. There are some doctors out there who prescribe narcotics and charge insane prices for visits and get rich in areas where drug abuse is prevalent. The DEA numbers are supposed to help control this by only allowing certain doctors (those who have applied for a DEA number and have been authorized) to prescribe them.

Is Radiology Department capitalized?

If the words 'Radiology Department' are being used to refer to a specific department in a particular place, then they should be capitalized. For example: "the Radiology Department of Queen Anne's Hospital". However if the sentence is referring to radiology departments in general, there is no need to capitalize. For example: "Maybe you should find a radiology department."
