Description
Help shape the future of healthcare at Monash Health and embark on a rewarding career where your dedication makes a difference in people’s lives.
About the Radiology Program
Radiology at Monash Health incorporates a full range of services including CT, US, MRI, DEXA, PET, Nuclear Medicine, X-Ray, OPG, Mammography, Fluoroscopy and Interventional and Therapeutic imaging services at the Monash Medical Centre - Clayton; Monash Children’s Hospital, Clayton; Dandenong Hospital, Dandenong; Casey Hospital, Berwick; Moorabbin Hospital, Bentleigh East, Kingston Centre, Cheltenham and the Pakenham Health Centre, Pakenham and Victorian Heart Hospital. Imaging also supports the Monash University Biomedical Imaging site including MRI and PET MRI. The service provides over 365,000 imaging examinations per year across all sites, currently employs approximately 600 EFT and has a gross operating budget of more than $100M.
The Radiology program clearly defines its mission as the delivery of leading edge, evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic imaging services and research and education that meets the needs of our community and employees. Our proposed vision is to relentlessly pursue excellence and be a beacon within imaging and be the prime provider and destination of choice for our community, referrers, researchers, educational institutions, employees and students.
In keeping with the international trend toward subspecialisation in radiology, 2019 saw Imaging introduce a comprehensive subspecialty service model. Subspecialisation enables imaging consultants to pursue chosen fields of interest whilst maintaining a general radiology skillset. This major change initiative was undertaken to support our proposed vision.
