The Department of Medical Imaging, Faculty of Health Sciences at McMaster University, Hamilton Health Sciences and St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton invite applicants for the position of Academic Nuclear Medicine Physician to join the Department.

This is a full-time faculty position for a period of three years renewable. Academic rank will be commensurate with the candidate’s qualifications and experience.

The Hamilton program offers a full range of nuclear medicine services both therapeutic and diagnostic. Therapies include Ra-223, Iodine-131 for both benign and malignant disease, and participation in Lu-177 PSMA research trials and a new Lu-177 Dotatate therapy programme.

We offer a full nuclear cardiology program, and any candidate is expected to participate fully in the stressing and interpretation of these studies.

We perform all general nuclear medicine studies including I-123 MIBG as part of neuroendocrine and pediatric oncology programs.

Over 4,000 PET scans are performed annually for both cardiac and oncologic indications. This includes myocardial perfusion imaging with Rubidium-82 PET but also cardiac imaging for endocarditis, sarcoid, and cardiac viability.

We perform F-18 PSMA PET scans for both research protocols as well as part of a provincial registry.

Clinical activities will include the participation in all aspects of therapeutic and diagnostic nuclear medicine including cardiac stress testing.

The successful candidate will be a full-time member of the Department of Medical Imaging and will be expected to contribute to the academic mission of the Faculty and Department.

The successful candidate should also have interest in undergraduate and post-graduate teaching in nuclear medicine. The members of the department pool fee-for-service billings according to the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care Schedule of Benefits.

We participate in an academic alternate funding plan. McMaster University has a benefit program for Full Time Faculty. The Division of Nuclear Medicine is committed to the fair and equitable distribution of work assignments.

The ideal candidate would be certified (or eligible for certification) by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and must be licensed (or eligible for licensure) in the Province of Ontario.

Consideration would be given to candidates with American Board of Nuclear Medicine certification who are eligible for certification in Ontario.

Dual trained candidates in Nuclear Medicine / Diagnostic Radiology will be considered on a case-by-case basis but should be aware that this is a Nuclear Medicine position, and the candidate must be comfortable providing the full range of Nuclear Medicine services including cardiac nuclear medicine studies, cardiac stress testing, bone densitometry, radioisotope therapies and PET procedures.
