Extensive optimisation has been undertaken on these two new scanners to allow full use to be made of their capabilities.

The Department supports a progressive cardiac imaging service with Radiographer lead stressing and clinical reporting.

It actively supports staff training, clinical development, audit, research and attendance at meetings and conferences.
