Summary
A Vacancy at University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust.
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust invite applications for the post of Radiology Fellow - Musculoskeletal Radiology:
The fellow would work with four Consultant MSK radiologists to deliver multimodality specialist MSK reporting, provision of diagnostic and interventional MSK ultrasound lists and fluoroscopic intervention, including biopsies and nerve root blocks.
The fellow will have their own MSK US and fluroscopy lists, which will be supported depending on ability. The department also receives large numbers of referrals for CT guided MSK biopsies from the Bristol Haematology and Oncology Centre and the fellow would help support the weekly CT guided MSK intervention list, as well as CT guided radiofrequency ablations of Osteoid Osteomas in the Children’s Hospital.
There are multiple clinical meetings with the orthopaedic and rheumatology teams from both the BRI and Weston sites every week, and there is potential scope for specialist paediatric MSK experience at the BCH.
The fellow will provide one session of acute CT/MRI reporting (Hub session) per week and a plain film or general ultrasound session per week. There is also provision for weekend on call work 1:4 or 1:5 Saturday and Sunday from 10am-6pm. No overnight or week day on calls. The remaining sessions would be reserved for MSK imaging.
The fellow is expected to participate in all musculoskeletal imaging activity, but there is scope to tailor timetables depending on interests and training goals. There will be opportunities to assist with audit, service improvement projects and ongoing research in the Unit. Participation in clinical research leading to a publication is strongly encouraged and will be supported.
Funded for a period of 12 months with the opportunity to be part of the adult/ paediatric Radiology registrar on call rota 1:10 depending on numbers of rotating registrars on the Severn radiology scheme.
Non-clinical training and responsibilities:
Day to day clinicoradiological responsibilities are seen to be a significant part of the training offered to Clinical Fellows, and opportunities are taken for informal clinical teaching as / when appropriate. All doctors are expected to undertake audit and to make a regular contribution to the Departmental academic programme. The formal teaching programme includes one department academic meeting (includes M&M and audit) and a teaching session each week.
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW) is one of the largest acute Trusts in the country, bringing together a combined workforce of over 13,000 staff and over 100 different clinical services across 10 different sites, serving a core population of more than 500,000 people across South West England.
UHBW has been rated by the CQC as ‘Good’ overall and our staff are proud to deliver excellent care to the people of Bristol, Weston and beyond. As a forward-thinking multi-award winning Trust and a digital exemplar committed to improving patient care, our world-leading research and innovations are having a positive local and global impact. Our hospitals are spread across Bristol and Weston, join us and you can enjoy the very best of both worlds; city living within a stone’s throw of the countryside or beside the seaside, both with easy access to all that the South West has to offer. UHBW is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. As an equal opportunities employer actively working towards a diverse workforce we aim to recruit and retain a workforce which represents the rich diversity of the local population at all levels and are committed to designing our services around the needs of individual patients and those around them. Anonymous information will be used from your application in order to ensure we’re meeting our pledge.
