We have a fantastic opportunity for a highly motivated individual to join us within our Nuclear Medicine department. The post holder will primarily provide support to the Clinical Scientists within the department with a number of varied and routine tasks and service development, working within a friendly, multi-disciplinary team of physicists, technologists, nurses, radiologists, and admin staff.
We currently have a dedicated solid state cardiac gamma camera and four hybrid SPECT CT gamma cameras. We support Sentinel Lymph Node surgery, and carry out a range of molecular radiotherapies, including I-131 ablation, I-131 thyrotoxic, Ra-223, and Lu-177 therapies. We provide technical support to Alliance Healthcare in the provision of a PET/CT service. There are many opportunities for service development and improvement projects.
This post would suit a technologist or radiographer with an interest in Nuclear Medicine or a physics graduate looking to move into a career in healthcare science. This is an excellent opportunity for candidates looking to improve their skills and experience before application to the STP scheme.
