United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals (ULTH) is eager to announce a rare opportunity for an MRI Modality lead.
As a BScMR accredited site, the MRI services at United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals have undergone an exciting expansion with the opening of three new purpose-built community diagnostic centres (CDC) and an additional MRI inpatient scanner on our acute site. The service offers the latest in MRI technology including AI acceleration software. As part of our recent CDC investment we have procured the newest in ROCC technology which offers innovative ways to remotely support both scanning and training across all sites. As a result, we are also working in collaboration with the Lincoln School of Radiography, who also have access to the ROCC system and will be jointly exploring piloting innovative student assessments.
We have a combination of 9 static and 1 mobile MRI's state of the art Siemens and Phillips scanners. We offer a wide range of services from Arthrograms, cardiac and GA examinations to our Nationally recognised specialist paediatric work using our three new kitten scanners. At United Lincolnshire Teaching Hospitals we pride ourselves on role development and have an established team of Knees, Spine and Cardiac MRI reporting advanced practitioners led by our newly appointed MRI clinical specialist.
This is a deferment; the candidate will start no earlier than May 2025.
