About the Job

The operations are conducted in brand new, beautifully designed premises on the floor known as Breast Center.

Here, the surgical and radiology clinics work together to provide residents with the best possible care, which means that the entire patient journey from investigation to diagnosis and follow-up is gathered, providing patients with security during the more difficult times in life. Blekinge needs you who want to work within and develop breast diagnostics – you will have great opportunities to grow, influence, and truly make a difference.

About Us

The Mammography Department provides the residents of Blekinge with access to high-quality breast diagnostics in Karlskrona and Karlshamn. The department has 13 employees of various categories such as radiologists, radiology nurses, and a medical secretary. The department performs approximately 25,000 examinations each year; mammography screenings and clinical examinations.

The Mammography Department is part of the Radiology Clinic and operates throughout Blekinge, with the clinical operations, where you will be working, located in Karlskrona, but health checks are also performed in Karlshamn. The workplace is characterized by a good atmosphere, cohesion, and collaboration, where we support each other and help out. We value the opportunity to develop in our work and provide good opportunities for professional development within our own medical field. The work environment is important to us, and we strive for a healthy balance between work and leisure. Regular wellness activities are part of our routine, and there is rarely a shortage of snacks!

About the Job

We are now looking for a breast radiologist or general radiologist who wants to further their education to become a breast radiologist for our department in Karlskrona. The tasks at the Mammography Department include mammography screening with double review by two breast radiologists and clinical investigations that constitute the majority of your position. As a senior physician at the mammography department, you will be responsible for independently investigating clinical patients using tomosynthesis, ultrasound, and various types of biopsies, including stereotactic and tomosynthesis-guided vacuum biopsies. You will also perform preoperative indications of tumors, lead or participate in multidisciplinary conferences, and supervise resident physicians. We are also pleased that we can now perform breast MRI in Region Blekinge and therefore value MRI competence in applicants.

You will have a lot of contact with patients and collaborate with other staff in the breast process. Your closest colleagues will consist of breast radiologists, radiology nurses/registered nurses, and an administrative secretary. Since you will be working closely with your colleagues, it is important for us that you have good collaboration skills.

We work in a shared RIS/PACS from Sectra.

About You

We are looking for someone who is a specialist in medical radiology with good knowledge in breast radiology; knowledge in MRI is an advantage. Alternatively, we are looking for someone with a genuine interest in becoming a breast radiologist in the future and who is a trained specialist in radiology. We expect you to have good collaboration skills, be meticulous, and have good clinical judgment. You see it as a given to take responsibility for the education of future colleagues. You have the ability to work independently but also enjoy collaboration in a smaller team. We place high demands on your willingness and motivation to perform your work in a high-quality and efficient manner, and we are looking for someone who can help maintain our good quality and contribute to the development of our operations. We place great importance on personal suitability.

As our current breast radiologists have passed the age of 60, there are good opportunities for future development and to take a leading position in the mammography department. We would like you to be interested in eventually filling a position as a medical management responsible and medical advisor to the operations and department manager in breast radiological matters and issues.
