Summary
It is expected that the appointee will have already gained experience and expertise in cardiovascular or cardiothoracic imaging as well as interventional radiology at registrar and/or consultant level. The appointment follows an increase in interventional workload following the opening of a new diagnostic and intervention centre at Royal Brompton in 2021 and will help contribute to a comprehensive 24/7 interventional radiology on-call rota. There is a separate general radiology consultant on-call for diagnostic imaging, in addition to separate neuroradiology second opinion service. The Enterprise imaging and Epic RIS/PACS system allows remote reporting from home for the discussion of IR cases. The on-call will be supported by a full interventional radiology nurse and radiographer rota. The post holder will be integrated into the clinical activities of the general imaging department with the object of ensuring a high standard of patient care in addition to contributing to all service developments, teaching and research. They will work and liaise with existing consultants to provide and develop imaging and intervention services. The candidates will need to cover all imaging modalities and contribute to the general radiology workload. The appointee will be expected to have obtained a diagnostic or interventional radiology fellowship and have published or presented in the field of radiology. Active engagement in clinical research studies will be encouraged and support in the recruitment of patients to appropriate clinical trials is expected. A desire to participate in teaching, clinical audit, and quality improvement projects with the aim of continually looking to improve standards of care in the department once appointed is important. Post-holders will participate in and develop clinical and organisational audit, to improve standards of the service wherever possible.
