    Default job background
    Permanent
    Description

    Job summary

    The Thirlestaine Breast Unit provides symptomatic and screening services to patients in Gloucestershire and parts of Worcestershire and Wales. We are looking for a dynamic consultant radiologist to join our successful and progressive multiskilled team who work collaboratively for the benefit of our patients. All conventional breast imaging is provided in one unit, with MRI, CT and PET a short walk away. You will be encouraged to take a leading role in service delivery joining a team of three established consultants, each with their special interest within breast imaging. We have an active research portfolio and are the largest DGH recruiter to breast imaging trials in the UK.

    Main duties of the job

    The successful candidate will provide symptomatic and screening services. In addition to having four FFDM units, two with biopsy capability, and four state-of-the-art ultrasound units, the unit also offers CEM. We undertake many breast MRIs, for clinical and research purposes and have ready access to PET/CT. There is no on call requirement for general radiology, however, this, and another speciality interest could be offered for the right candidate if they so desire. An interest in oncological CT would be welcome.

    About us

    The breast surgery and breast imaging departments merged in 2023 to provide one workforce in one breast unit. We are progressive in that many traditional radiologist roles are now undertaken by advanced practitioners, and some of the surgeon undertake diagnostic imaging and image guided surgery. We are proud to have trained many of our radiographic staff and breast clinicians in house. We have trained one breast clinician for the NBIA breast clinician credential and we have been accepted as a host site for the next round of NBIA radiology fellowships.
