NORTHWEST NAMES IMAGING MANAGER
UPMC
Northwest has named Laura Jones, BSRT(R), as manager of imaging
services.
Mrs. Jones has been a UPMC Northwest staff member for 23 years,
including one year as a staff radiologic technologist, 18 years
as clinical coordinator of the UPMC Northwest Radiologic Technology
School, four years as imaging supervisor, and the past three months
as interim manager.
Mrs. Jones’
responsibilities in the new post will include managing x-ray, CT,
MRI, mammography, nuclear medicine, nuclear cardiology, ultrasound,
stereotactic breast biopsy and other imaging functions, and overseeing
UPMC Northwest’s imaging staff.
“Laura’s
vast knowledge and experience as a radiographer, educator and supervisor
have prepared her well for her new leadership role,” says
Doug Frankenburg, UPMC Northwest’s vice president of clinical
services. “She is committed to the provision of excellent
imaging services and the satisfaction of our patients.”
Following her
brief term as interim manager, Mrs. Jones is “eager to continue
leading a department that consistently distinguishes itself as a
center of excellence,” Frankenburg said.
