01 — The role at PRC

PRC's nuclear medicine and PET caseload is extensive and clinically complex — spanning oncology, cardiology, neurology, thyroid and beyond. You'll work with equipment that includes 5 PET/CT machines and 5 SPECT/CT cameras, in a practice where the subspecialist model means every scan is read by a physician with deep expertise in the relevant area.

Modalities and procedures:

•        PET/CT — FDG oncology imaging

•        PET/CT — PSMA for prostate cancer (Australia's first clinical PSMA PET/CT, 2015)

•        SPECT/CT

•        Bone scans

•        Thyroid and parathyroid imaging

•        Cardiac nuclear medicine

PRC's nuclear medicine physicians participate in 40+ MDTs per week — nuclear medicine technologists work in clinical environments where their contribution to patient care is visible and valued.

02 — Learn & grow

Nuclear medicine at PRC sits at the intersection of clinical practice and research in a way that's genuinely rare in private imaging. The practice's partnership with the National Imaging Facility WA Node at Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research means access to clinical trials, research projects and first-in-human studies.

•        650+ clinical trials and research data requests supported since 2018

•        Phase I–III studies and first-in-human trials on healthy participants

•        CPD support and sponsored conference attendance

•        MDT participation across oncology, cardiology, neurology and more

PRC has also partnered with RMIT to introduce the Embedded Student Model: Bachelor of Medical Radiation (Nuclear Medicine — Industry Practice) to Western Australia. This is the first time WA students can access undergraduate nuclear medicine study without leaving the state — and PRC is at the centre of making it happen.

03 — Where this can take you

Nuclear medicine at PRC is a discipline where depth of expertise is genuinely rewarded. The practice's scale — and its commitment to subspecialist practice — means there are opportunities to develop real subspecialty focus in oncology, cardiac or neurological imaging that simply don't exist in smaller practices.

PRC's research partnerships also open pathways into clinical research roles, academic collaboration and contributions to the published literature — again, unusual for a private practice setting.
