There are two fellowship positions available. The fellowship includes fixed clinical sessions. These will include: Dedicated diagnostic and therapeutic ultrasound lists MR reporting sessions under the supervision of a Consultant Radiologist and independent reporting towards the end of the fellowship or when the Consultant signs the fellow off X-ray and CT reportin The successful candidate will be also expected to be heavily involved in research and will leave the fellowship with a minimum of one publication. A flexible session will be available for audit and research. There is no on call commitment. This is a whole time radiology post based at The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital.
