Locum Breast Consultant Radiology | Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

Applications are invited for a Locum Consultant Breast Radiologist post at Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

This is a replacement post offering 10 programmed activities.

It is an exciting time to join our enthusiastic and dynamic Imaging department. At MKUH we are embarking on an extensive redevelopment programme that includes the building of a new Scanning Centre and implementation of a CDC programme.

The breast imaging department is equipped with digital imaging offering digital breast tomography and is soon to implement the use of Contrast Enhanced Spectral Mammography (CESM).

The post holder should have broad radiology experience with the skills expected from a fully trained and experienced general Radiologist, as well as a more specialised interest with experience in breast radiology and the National Breast Screening Programme

The post holder will be expected to take part in departmental audit and clinical governance issues, the general on-call rota, provide training and education to medical and other departmental staff as required and participate in multi-disciplinary team (MDT) meetings.

This post will encompass all areas of imaging allied to the screening and symptomatic breast services, including specialist breast ultrasound, image guided intervention utilising the modalities of ultrasound, stereotactic guidance and digital breast tomography with special reference to stereotactic guided and ultrasound guided vacuum biopsy, the reporting of breast MRI, CT and plain radiography.

There will be the opportunity to pursue and develop further areas of special interest in line with departmental and Trust strategy. The post holder will be required to be committed to maintaining their standard of performance by keeping their knowledge and skills up to date.

The main base for this post will be Milton Keynes University Hospital but there may be a requirement to work at any other location where the Trust provides services such as community diagnostic centres.
