Heidi is a Professional Teaching Fellow in Medical Imaging for the new PGCertHSc(Mammography) programme in the Department of Anatomy and Medical Imaging and completed her Master of Medical Imaging Science with a Breast Specialisation in 2022.
Heidi’s Capstone project, titled ‘Implementation of radar reflector-guided localisation as an alternative to wire localisation of impalpable breast lesions in a private breast clinic’, promoted a practice change to wire-free localisations, with benefits for scheduling, clinical and patient-centered needs.
