A new academy to train radiologists and imaging professionals is to be created in Wales with £3.4m of Welsh Government funding. The new National Imaging Academy for Wales will be based in Pencoed, Bridgend, and is due to be up and running by mid-2018. Health Secretary Vaughan Gething announced that the academy would 'play an important role in helping to increase the number of trained radiologists'. It will provide specialist training, in partnership with the existing provision at hospital sites throughout south Wales. The academy will be fitted with workstation suites, simulation training and a lecture theatre.
