The purpose of this post is to provide further/advanced training to a subspecialised thoracic radiologist. This includes diagnostic and interventional training as well as opportunity to take part in management projects alongside RM Partners West London Cancer Alliance. This will give invaluable experience that will prove useful for Consultant Practice.
Candidates will be expected to take part in supervised reporting of all modalities in imaging with a plan to progress to more independent working.
With training, the fellow will be expected to run one CT guided lung biopsy list with consultant support as needed.
Candidates will be expected to take part in a number of subspecialised thoracic radiology MDTs (Cancer, Screening review, ILD, Infectious disease etc.), with a view to leading these independently.
Candidates will have the opportunity to be involved with in house quality improvement/governance projects. In addition, the fellow will be provided with time and opportunity to work on a network-wide approach to managing the demands for PET, CT and other radiological investigations that arise from the lung pathway across the sector, considering the increased impact expected from the TLHC rollout (including CT/US guided tissue sampling).
This fellowship aims to offer advanced training in all subspecialties and across all modalities of thoracic imaging (CT/MR/US), gain interventional lung experience and be expected to participate inclinicoradiological meeting. Cross sectional and general reporting will be required.
There will no on-call commitment.
One day will be spent on RMPartners related duties, that will enable participation in audit, clinical risk and other management duties.

Thoracic reporting across all imaging modalities.
CT guided intervention lists (lung biopsy, potential for lung cancer localisation and complex chest drainage). Ad hoc US guided intervention.
Timetabled management session for project work across the sector to optimise the efficiency with regards to the lung pathway, TLHC/lung cancer screening and the onwards referral forPET CT and other radiological investigations (including CT/US guided tissue sampling) throughout the network.
