Anatomical Pathology Technologist

Job Summary

University Hospitals of Leicester, Mortuary Service cares for approximately 6500 patients each year and is capable of accommodating up to 700 patients simultaneously. We performed over two 2000 post mortems last year. This included adult, perinatal, paediatric, hospital, coronial and forensic examinations. We received referrals, from across the UK, for coronial paediatric, bariatric and patients with group 3 pathogens, including prion disease.

We have been at the forefront of developing CT as a non-invasive diagnostic alternative to traditional post-mortem for a number of years and currently derive a cause of death using CT on approximately 85% of Coronial post-mortems. We advocate external only and limited examinations where possible and also perform clinical intervention as preparation for angiograms.

This application will close once sufficient applications have been received. This can happen quickly, therefore early application is advised....
