About Us
As a diagnostic service Radiology covers a whole host of studies treating a variety of conditions, but our research also looks at Radiology as its own discipline with Radiologist and Radiographer-led research.
This can include radiological interventions as a part of treatment such as a surgery and within nuclear medicine. As well as looking to improve our diagnostic services for earlier and more accurate detection of conditions such as cancer, injury or neurological conditions.
Our Radiology research disciplines with the Trust:
| Bone Imaging | CT | Mammography | MRI |
| Paediatrics | Vascular | Ultrasound | X-Ray |
