This one day event aims to provide an insight into Radiology careers and training. We are aiming the topics at Junior Doctors (F1/F2) and all Medical Students who might consider a career in Radiology.
One session will comprise of a handful of talks highlighting how far Radiology has come, what it’s like to be a Radiologist, training, the application process and what the future holds. There will also be a dedicated talk on Interventional Radiology.
A second session comprises of five 30 minute small group sessions. The idea of these is to let you have a go on some of the advanced 3D workstations, ultrasound and the vascular simulator (VIST). One session will be coffee and chat, where you can ask questions, discuss the topics or anything else!
The cost is £10, this includes lunch and refreshments! Those who are currently employed or training within the South West Peninsula Deanery will have their cheques refunded on the day.
There are only 60 places and these will be allocated on a first come first served basis. The closing date for all applications is Monday 28th September (late applications may be considered, depending on available spaces).
How to apply: Please email justine.dalton@southwest.nhs.uk to reserve yourself a place.

Feedback from previous events
"I recently attended the 'Introduction to Radiology' day held at the Peninsula Radiology Academy in Plymouth. Not only was the day well organised and informative but there was also plenty of opportunity to ask questions and get hands on experience with some of the technical equipment, all in a very friendly relaxed atmosphere."
