MSc / PGDip / PGCert Advanced Clinical Practitioner (Radiographic Reporting)

The programme has been specifically designed to meet the need for expert radiographers who undertake reporting for the NHS and independent heath organisations and is validated by the Society of Radiographers, incorporating their criteria for advanced practice. Lead by Professors Maryann Hardy and Beverly Snaith, the Programme will be taught by a range of local, national and international experts in the reporting field.

The Programme offers levels of award to support your journey to the role you are developing in to. The one-year Postgraduate Certificate Medical Imaging (Medical Image Reporting) is for those training to be new reporting radiographers, helping you to develop and apply the knowledge and skills to report radiographs in MSK or chest and abdomen reporting depending on the scope of practice you are developing (please specify which on your application). Existing reporting radiographers extending their scope of reporting practice can apply for the appropriate module rather than the full PG Certificate (please contact Admissions for a single module application).

The two-year Postgraduate Diploma is for those wanting to advance their role further, developing leadership skills in their advance practice reporting role and more than one scope of reporting practice.

The MSc Advanced Clinical Practitioner Radiographic Reporting programme is a three-year part-time programme which covers the four pillars of the advanced clinical practitioner in a reporting context, research development, knowledge transfer, leadership, and reporting skills designed to meet the challenges of service delivery and improve the quality of reporting, patient care and health outcomes. For experienced existing reporting radiographers who are developing in to this role, please contact us regarding applying for recognition of prior learning to build on your previous qualification.
