A collaborative, flexible approach and strong team ethic are key to success in this role.

* Assist the Imaging IT Manager(s) with entering and retiring reference table data such as exam codes, referral sources and authorised referrers and report authors.
* Assist the Imaging IT Manager(s), and when required take the lead, with testing of new RIS, PACS and other associated imaging IT systems software updates, releases, patches or new installations.
* Assist with the uploading and/or production of CDs or DVDs of patient imaging from PACS (± anonymisation of data) where necessary and support the Imaging teams if problems arise with the uploading/burning CD/DVD process.
* Assist the Imaging IT manager to set up and maintain RIS letter templates, text and email appointment reminders for patient communication.
* Collect error messages from specific RIS and/or PACS workstations in support of troubleshooting and fault reporting.
