The post requires the provision of general diagnostic work for paediatric conditions from all modalities including plain film, CT and MRI scans as well as independently undertaking ultrasound and fluoroscopic lists.
They would work together with Clinical colleagues both with delivery of MDM’s and case discussion to enhance performance and improve clinical outcomes by delivering an evidence-based service, adopting and implementing national guidance in a timely manner and introducing new or innovative treatments in line with Trust guidance / policy.
There would be an expectation to participate in Teaching and Commitment to the training and supervision of Specialist Registrars. The importance of maintaining individual and team competencies to ensure patient safety by attending mandatory training and understand the role and importance of taking part in Audit, Clinical governance and REAL Meetings should be understood. There is also opportunity for continuing professional development and the involvement in research.

The Radiology Service is consultant delivered with an emphasis on providing a well-rounded service, including both acute and local speciality imaging. Acute care has been an emphasis given the volume of emergency work and to that end, this service has been reorganised, incorporating evolving changes in Consultant Job Plans, Departmental and Clinical pathways. PRUH radiology has recently been recognised as a training site for King's College Hospital radiology specialist registrars. Radiology consultants are supported by administration staff and the departmental PA and office space is available.
