Applications are invited for a full time post-CCT fellowship in Interventional Radiology, with the opportunity to gain specialist skills and knowledge in a wide range of vascular and oncological procedures.
The successful applicant will join a large team of interventional radiologists, taking the training opportunities available across our two sites at the brand-new Royal Liverpool Hospital, the recently upgraded Aintree IR theatres and the new development (due August 2023) of two hybrid vascular theatres, based at Aintree Hospital.
LUFT provides an extensive portfolio of vascular and oncological treatments via four IR theatres across the two sites.
In addition to a soon to be completed hybrid suite housing two theatres, using the latest Siemens Artis Zee and Artis Pheno systems.
Vascular services in LUFT foster a multidisciplinary and collaborative approach to patient care.Peripheral vascular work is performed predominantly within IR theatres, while more complicated cases involving cut downs and EVAR cases are performed as joint procedures with vascular surgeons in hybrid theatres.
Cases include, but are not limited to, routine and acute EVAR, ChEVAR, FEVAR and TEVAR as well as SMA, renovascular and other visceral branch interventions.
LUFT acts as a tertiary centre for many oncology interventions such as TACE, portal vein embolisation, SIRT, ablations of lung, liver, kidney tumours.
In addition we provide a wide range of other vascular and non-vascular interventions, such as PAE, UFE, trauma embolisations, AVM treatments, fistula work, PTC's amongst others.
Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust was created on 1 October 2019 following the merger of two adult acute Trusts, Aintree University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust.
The merger provides an opportunity to reconfigure services in a way that provides the best healthcare services to the city and improves the quality of care and health outcomes that patients experience.
It serves a core population of around 630,000 people across Merseyside as well as providing a range of highly specialist services to a catchment area of more than two million people in the North West region and beyond.
