Queensland X-Ray has a significant volume of specialist and generalist MSK imaging in both community and hospital settings. With numerous sub-specialist radiologists, 1:1 teaching is available along with intervention and multiple specialist orthopaedic and sports medicine meetings. Full-time 12 month fellowship positions are available in South East Queensland and Townsville.
Applicants must have attained RANZCR Fellowship, or overseas equivalent and are required to meet all requirements of the Royal College of Australian and New Zealand Radiologists (RANZCR) and the Australian Health Practitioner Regulations Agency (AHPRA).
Reporting to MSK Program Directors – Dr David Oar (South East Queensland), Dr Peter Brookfield (Townsville) and Dr Morgan McMeniman (Brisbane) fellows will receive 1:1 teaching with sub-specialist radiologists, engage in self-directed study based on a formal curriculum, and participate in multidisciplinary conferences, orthopaedic and sports medicine meetings, and journal clubs. Fellows will manage a high-volume MSK imaging caseload, including routine and urgent studies, under consultant supervision. They will gain experience in providing consults, managing contrast reactions, understanding CT and MRI image acquisition for MSK radiology, and performing routine interventions such as joint injections and biopsies.
The program offers balanced exposure to both hospital and community-based MSK imaging, with opportunities to develop expertise in sports medicine and orthopaedic imaging.
Alongside clinical duties, fellows will participate in educational activities and research projects to prepare for integrating advanced MSK imaging skills into general or specialist private radiology practice. At the completion of the program, a fellow can expect to be proficient in the supervision and interpretation of MSK imaging studies acquired from a range of CT and MRI platforms.
