The school provides training to more than 300 trainees across London and the south east.

We offer world-class interventional training facilities in organisations including national treasure posts such as the Royal Brompton Hospital. Our training and research is not just about imaging. We also lead the way in the development of minimally invasive interventional procedures, from coiling of cerebral aneurysms to radiofrequency ablation of tumours.

We actively promote academic radiology, offering appointments to several academic clinical fellow posts in addition to fantastic research opportunities at all our centres. Based in this region, our consultants will deal with the widest cross-section of the country's healthcare population and benefit from all the culture and diversity the capital can provide.
