University of Oxford - Division of Cardiovascular Medicine
We are seeking a highly motivated and talented CT/interventional radiographer with an interest in Cardiac imaging to work within our research/clinical facility, the Acute Multidisciplinary Imaging and Interventional Centre (AMIIC). The unique centre includes a hybrid unit combining a photon-counting Siemens Naeotom Alpha CT Scanner integrated with a brand new cardiac catheterisation lab/interventional lab (Siemens ARTIS Icono Biplane). The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on exciting prototype technologies (hardware and software) and contribute to the cutting-edge scientific projects of the University of Oxford. The radiographer, whilst being an employee of the University of Oxford, will also be involved in the provision of a highly patient-oriented clinical service for the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
We require someone who will enjoy working in a friendly, cutting-edge environment, performing advanced procedures (using clinical and research techniques) as part of a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians, radiographers, nurses, physiologists, and researchers spanning both University of Oxford and NHS Departments. Due to the expansion of both the clinical and research service, a flexible approach to weekend and evening work will be required. The post holder will ideally be expected to rotate between both the CT and Interventional services allowing for a flexible working team.
