Medical reports used for "primary diagnostic purposes" are generally not considered incidental and thus are seldom exempted under this provision."Kansas Board of Healing Arts Yes, a full, unrestricted Kansas medical license required, but not if it's for a second reading where the radiologist is consulting with a radiologist licensed in Kansas.
