This paper mentions the status of diagnostic medical physicists, estimating the lack of this work in Vietnam. The evaluation method is based on International Atomic Energy Agency documents and typical hospital models in Vietnam. In 2021, there were no diagnostic medical physicists. The roles and responsibilities of diagnostic medical physicists are currently performed by radiologists, biomedical engineers, and medical physicists in radiation oncology or nuclear medicine. This job is still a potential profession in Vietnam.
