Job description
This is a clinical faculty appointment at the level of Assistant Professor for a Qualified Medical Physicist (QMP) in the Department of Imaging Physics, Division of Diagnostic Imaging to provide service and expertise at Houston Area Locations (HALs). The department provides imaging physics support to the primary campus of UT MD Anderson, as well as nearby HALs, and national remote affiliate sites (Cancer Network). This position requires independent clinical and scientific effort in the physics of diagnostic imaging and nuclear medicine therapy. Technical emphasis of the position is directed towards participation in development and management of programs at HALs focused on imaging physics and nuclear medicine therapy quality assurance (including patient procedures, acquisition and post-processing protocols) as well as safety considerations for patients and staff. These activities will involve expertise in the evaluation and integration of imaging systems, continuous quality improvement and consultation in imaging protocols for diagnosis, intervention and therapy, consultations regarding patient safety, site and equipment acceptance testing, and ongoing quality control, including annual system testing. Research efforts are expected to align closely with discovery and innovation in these patient care activities. Participation in institutional and departmental graduate and post-graduate educational and training programs is also expected.
Qualifications & EXPERIENCE
- Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Medical Physics from a CAMPEP accredited program with either completion of a CAMPEP accredited residency or 2 year experience in clinical Diagnostic or Nuclear Medical Physics, or
- Ph.D. or an equivalent degree in a related field and 3 years relevant experience in clinical Diagnostic or Nuclear Medical Physics, and
- American Board of Radiology certification in Diagnostic or Nuclear Medical Physics or American Board of Science in Nuclear Medicine certification in Physics and Instrumentation (or eligible), and
- Able to obtain a Texas License in Diagnostic Medical Physics or Medical Nuclear Physics, and
- Eligible for Institutional Class I medical privileges.
SPECIFIC Skills
- Knowledge of, and clinical experience in, all aspects of imaging physics and instrumentation (radiography, fluoroscopy, mammography, DXA, interventional radiology, computed tomography, MRI, ultrasound, single-photon and PET imaging and non-imaging instruments, radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals, internal dosimetry, radiation protection) as well as standard radiation detection/monitoring and electronic test equipment.
- Aptitude and experience in imaging physics research and development commensurate with the academic title sought with evidence from peer-reviewed scientific publications.
- Experience and programming aptitude for image processing and data analysis software tools (e.g., MATLAB, IDL, R, Python, etc.)
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, both oral and written, as well as ability to work in a clinical environment independently.
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center offers excellent benefits, including medical, dental, paid time off, retirement, tuition benefits, educational opportunities, and individual and team recognition.
This position may be responsible for maintaining the security and integrity of critical infrastructure, as defined in Section 113.001(2) of the Texas Business and Commerce Code and therefore may require routine reviews and screening. The ability to satisfy and maintain all requirements necessary to ensure the continued security and integrity of such infrastructure is a condition of hire and continued employment.
