North West Chest X-Ray Reporting Radiographers SIG

This group is aimed at radiographers in the North West Region who report or have a future interest in reporting adult chest X-ray’s.

We are a small team of CXR reporting radiographers working in a cancer centre who want to develop a network for sharing CXR reporting knowledge.  We are well established and are keen to share information and learn from everyone’s experiences.

Aims

  • To provide a network for radiographers who report or will report CXR’s
  • Enhance specialist knowledge of chest x-ray reporting
  • Learn from each other with a view to improving practice

Objectives

  • Meet on a regular basis to discuss interesting cases, medico-legal issues, exchange ideas, present pre-arranged specialist topics 
  • Inspire research, audit and professional publication
  • Discuss relevant national and professional publications and their impact on practice
  • Promote advanced practitioner status and career development 
  • Encourage professional development
  • Develop CPD opportunities
  • We plan to meet at least twice a year at The Christie in Manchester, and intend to hold future study days for a small fee.

Membership is free of charge. The group at present will be self-funded. For further information please contact: [email protected]
