The Diagnostic Imaging department at North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust is a busy department supporting a large range of services, including stroke, HIV medicine and a busy sickle cell disorder service. We have one of the busiest A&E units in London, and the work reflects this.
The Diagnostic Imaging department is based mainly on 2 levels within the hospital, including 1 Canon Aquilion Prime SP CT scanner and 1 Canon Aquilion One Prism CT scanner, a Philips MRI scanner, digital fluoroscopy units to perform interventional procedures, 5 Siemens Ysio Max general radiography rooms serving inpatients, outpatients, A&E clinics and GP services. We undertake a large range of orthopaedic theatre procedures. We have a busy ultrasound department with 3 general rooms, and 7 gynaecology and maternity rooms opened in our new maternity wing. Nuclear medicine imaging is provided on site. A new cardiac catheter lab was installed in 2014.
The department has a long tradition of radiographer development, with radiographers reporting the appendicular and axial skeleton, chest, abdomen, ultrasound and mammograms. We perform almost 200,000 examinations per annum and the workload can be busy and challenging.
Our service runs 24/7, 365 days a year for emergencies and inpatients. It is planned to further extend the core hours for routine scanning to include weekends and there is a requirement for the post-holder to partake in the 7-day rota including weekends and bank holidays.
