Job summary

We invite you to join a team of Radiologists providing diagnostic Imaging and Interventional Service for North Lancashire and South Cumbria. We contribute to the workload of the department, including CT, US, MRI and plain film reporting and participate in the on call rota (1:16). We outsource on call work from 8 pm (weekdays) and 5 pm (weekend and Bank holidays) to provide a more palatable and sustainable working pattern.

We have good admin support, highly integrated voice recognition and an active programme to refresh equipment. We have successfully installed 3 new CT scanners, 3 new MR scanners and 16 new USS machines in the last 4 years. The PACS has been upgraded to a state of the art SECTRA system . A new SPECT CT system has been installed at FGH with plans for a similar replacement in nuclear medicine at RLI.

Whilst remaining general Radiologists, we all sub-specialise to a greater or lesser degree and report a share of general work whilst also working collaboratively to cover specific tumour work and other sub-specialties across the whole trust from our individual bases using a single PACS system. A shared contribution to the general work of the department would be expected from the successful applicant.

Opportunities exist to develop or maintain an interest in teaching, development and research

Enjoy a four day working week and SPA on appointment, living in the most beautiful scenery England has to offer and enjoying affordable houses, fantastic state schools while only being 2 1/2 hours from London, Glasgow or Edinburgh, and an hour from Manchester.
