## Job Content

### Job overview

An exciting opportunity has arisen for Breast Radiology Clinical Fellow to complement our established and experienced Breast Radiology team.

The University Hospital of North Tees houses a modern, purpose breast unit which runs the regional screening and symptomatic breast services across Stockton, Middlesbrough, East and South Durham, Hartlepool and the surrounding areas, making it one of the top five largest breast units in the country.

The screening service screens over 55,000 women every year and diagnoses around 320 cancers per year.

The symptomatic service sees approximately 8,000 referrals per year, diagnosing around 600 cancers.

The team are proud of the first-class breast screening and symptomatic service they provide.

### Main duties of the job

The successful candidate will need to be a fully trained radiologist with breast radiology training and experience gained within the UK or overseas. This is a Resident Doctor (LED) post at the grade of MT04 to MT05 (ST3+ equivalent) - depending on the successful candidate.

The General Radiology service is well equipped, with modern facilities including multiple Dual and Single Source Siemens CT scanners, 3T and 1.5T MRI scanners, SPECT-CT and recently upgraded ultrasound facilities. Philips (Carestream) PACS was installed in 2020 with regional image sharing via a Global Worklist.
