Psychoradiology
So, one of the reasons I decided not to go into psychiatry was that I found the criteria for diagnosing various psychiatric disorders very ambiguous. The criteria for arriving at a specific diagnosis were based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). It was DSM-III when I was medical school, and the current edition is DSM-V. I think every medical student felt that they had characteristics of every psychiatric disorder after they finished their psychiatry clerkship!
