An exciting opportunity has arisen to work predominantly in CT based at Sunderland Hospital, although cross-site working is encouraged.

Sunderland Hospital has undergone an exciting redevelopment of the Emergency Dept., providing a cutting-edge environment for patient care, diagnosis and treatment. Within the Diagnostic Hub of ED is a Canon Genesis CT scanner, this 320-slice scanner allows for rapid diagnosis for ED and acutely-unwell patients. There are two additional Canon scanners, used for a range of in-patient and out-patient CT examinationsincluding biopsies, percutaneous cryotherapy, colonography studies and cardiac investigations. The Team here is dedicated to CT only.

South Tyneside Hospital has recently installed a 128-slice Siemens go.Top, and also has a 64-slice Siemens go.All. Both are used for a range of in-patient and out-patient CT examinations, including biopsies, colonography studies and cardiac investigations. Additionally the Department has four dedicated X-ray rooms, two flurosocopy and interventional rooms, and a peripheral site providing x-ray. The Team at South Tyneside work across modalities during the normal working day, however they are committed to maintaining the CT Service 24/7.
