Contribute to the routine medical physics activities in the PET Centre. Carry out day-to-day data tasks for the UK PET Core Lab, including data transfer, analysis and collation of images, acquisition of phantom data and liaising with contacts at other imaging facilities. Take on duties concerning radiation protection and the use of radioactive materials throughout the PET Centre including the cyclotron and radiochemistry facilities and the scanning areas of the department. Assist where appropriate in carrying out complex research studies involving processing of blood samples etc. Be involved with and support the management of radioactive waste generated in the scanning area and PET radiochemistry facility. This includes dealing with short lived waste streams in the radiochemistry laboratories and long-lived contaminants from the cyclotrons, working closely with radiochemistry colleagues and researchers. Ensure compliance with the environment agency permit in generating radioactive waste records from radiation monitoring systems and reports under supervision of a clinical scientist. Manage record keeping of training and induction of new staff working within the scanning suites and laboratories and provide safety training directly where appropriate. Assist, where appropriate, with scanner, sample counter and dose calibrator QC, e.g., filling phantoms for scanner QC testing, carrying out regular QC on well counter etc. Ensure scanning equipment, including radiation monitoring devices, is safe for use through maintaining up to date records of equipment maintenance and service. Assist in drafting risk assessments as necessary for all new work undertaken by the department. Similarly for radiation project forms, local rules, systems of work, working procedures documents for use of radioactive materials, and best practical means documentation for disposal of radioactive substances etc. Undertake audits of working practice within the department under the supervision of a clinical scientist. Write clearly in systems of work that must be understood and followed by other members of staff. Work as part of a multidisciplinary team and liaise with medical, scientific and technical staff, radiographers, administrative and other staff groups from within and outside the PET centre as appropriate. Undertake other tasks and responsibilities appropriate to the position as necessary, including working flexible hours if required. The above list of responsibilities may not be exhaustive, and the post holder will be required to undertake such tasks and responsibilities as may reasonably be expected within the scope and grading of the post.
