My unit is equipped with a 1.5T Siemens Sola, 1.5T GE and a 1.5T Philips Ambition and I rotate across these scanners where I carry out various MRI examinations of different parts of the body which include breast, brain, spine, joints, angiography studies, including paediatric cases.

• Facilitates accurate diagnoses by producing clear, detailed images from different angles.
• Enhances team efficiency by providing training on new software updates and machinery upgrades.
• Ensures patient comfort by thoroughly explaining MRI procedures.
• Coordinated scheduling for outpatient appointments optimising department workflow.
• Collaborated closely with radiologists for complex cases requiring special imaging techniques.
• Maintained patient records for efficient tracking of treatment progress.
• Complied strictly with all health and safety regulations during radiation exposures, ensuring staff and patient safety.
• Monitored changes in patients' conditions during procedures, taking appropriate action when necessary.
• Performed routine maintenance checks on MRI machines to ensure optimal performance.
• Protected patient privacy and confidentiality with adherence to data security protocols.
• Liaised regularly with multidisciplinary teams for comprehensive patient care coordination.

• Maintained patient records for efficient tracking of treatment progress.
• Kept up-to-date with latest radiography techniques through continuous professional development courses.
• Facilitated accurate diagnoses by producing clear, detailed images from different angles.
• Liaised regularly with multidisciplinary teams for comprehensive patient care coordination.
• Positioned patients for specific imaging, using protective devices to support safety and comfort.
• Prioritised emergency cases efficiently resulting in timely medical intervention.
• Monitored changes in patients' conditions during procedures, taking appropriate action when necessary.
• I ensured that the patient can clearly hear me through the intercom and that I’m clearly understood during the examinations.
• I ensured that the room is properly set up for each examination, making sure I select the right coil and all that I need for each examination is properly set up before calling the patient in for the examination.
• It is my duty to ensure that I select the right protocol for each examination and that I acquire the best images possible in the shortest time possible.

• Assisted physicians in the interpretation of complex scans, enhancing diagnosis accuracy.
• Prioritised emergency cases efficiently resulting in timely medical intervention.
• Kept up-to-date with latest radiography techniques through continuous professional development courses.
• Complied strictly with all health and safety regulations during radiation exposures, ensuring staff and patient safety.
• Implemented new safety protocols for handling radioactive materials, reducing risk of exposure.
• Positioned patients for specific imaging, using protective devices to support safety and comfort.
• I ensure that each patient is stable before letting them leave the unit after the examination.

I ensure the right protocol is selected for each examination, that the right patient and details is selected and inputted and that the examination is tailored to the doctor’s

request.

• The ultrasound unit was equipped with GE voluson S9, E8, P8, Logiq v5, Philips iU22 ultrasound scanners and being a busy fertility clinic I rotated across these machines where I carried out obstetrics ultrasound for dating, viability, placenta localization, checking of any obvious abnormality, including over all foetal well-being.
• I also carried out abdominal ultrasound for various clinical requests like pain, vomiting etc.
• I used the Philips portable scanner for bedside ultrasound for patients who are very unwell to help in their clinical management.
• At the level I worked at that time, I had all my findings vetted by more experienced colleagues before sending out to the referring clinicians.
• I observed some advanced clinical requests like anomaly scans, nuchal translucencies etc.
• Participated actively in regular training sessions, staying abreast of developments within the field.
