We are looking for Locum MSK Consultant Radiologist to come and join the team here at GWH on a 12 month fixed term contract. The post is full-time, but we would consider part time applicants. The Radiology department is well-equipped, having two 128 slice Siemens CT scanners, two 1.5T Siemens MRI scanners, digital screening rooms and updated US machines. Works are currently underway to install a new Cardiac CT scanner and a SPECT CT. We also employ regular on-site CT and MRI vans/static scanners for additional workload. The Breast Centre is the base for the Wiltshire Breast Screening Service for Swindon, North and West Wiltshire. We screen nearly 100,000 ladies over a three-year cycle. There are two screening vans and a static facility at the Great Western Hospital. The Breast Centre also provides a symptomatic service for Swindon and Wiltshire. The department has Hologic mammography units with tomosynthesis. We are setting up a contrast enhanced mammography (CEM) service shortly. Localisations are usually done with Magseed. There is a new SPECT CT scanner in the main radiology department.
