NHS Medical & Dental: Consultant
Job overview
The post holders will share in the general cross-sectional work of the department including the out of hours work and the Duty Radiology rota. PET CT reporting capability will be an advantage as PET CT imaging is available on site currently for 2 days a week, potentially going into 3 days. Other subspecialist interests can also be developed to complement the needs of the department. Experience of oncology imaging is essential and participation in MDTs.
Main duties of the job
The appointed candidate will work with other cross-sectional radiologists in post who already deliver a significant volume of service audited for quality assurance.
The post will entail regular MDT meetings co-ordinated with other team members and built into the job plan.
Excellent core cross-sectional imaging skills and good spoken and written English are essential pre-requisites to enable the Trust to deliver its service objectives. A strong foundation in general body and neuro imaging is essential for delivering a sustainable 24 hour imaging service for this Acute Trust with a busy Emergency Assessment Unit, Trauma Unit, Regional Oncological centre, a Heart and Lung Centre and a dynamic Stroke Treatment Unit with endarterectomy facilities on site.
The post holder will contribute to the long established 7 day working arrangement and the evening on site consultant radiologist cover until 8 pm.
