There are 11 Cardiothoracic radiologists in the trust across all sites, all of whom are very motivated, which provides a fantastic learning environment. The appointed fellow will have the opportunity to engage and work with the entire team to gain valuable experience.  In addition, the department’s strategic plan will allow trainees and fellows to access PET-CT, Cardiac-PET and other specialist nuclear imaging.  

There will be a dedicated clinical supervisor to provide support during the programme. This is in addition to an educational supervisor who will overlook the fellowship programme across all specialities. The department has a well-established fellowship programme across different specialities. The appointed fellow will have the chance to work with a larger team at their level.
