Miss Faye Morton

Faye was born in Swansea and attended Swansea University graduating in 2010 with a First Class Honours Degree in BSc Clinical Technology. She has also completed an MSc Nuclear Medicine programme, graduating in 2015. She has worked for 6 years in Cardiff and Vale NHS trust as a Nuclear Medicine Technologist and a Senior Nuclear Medicine Technologist before moving to Swansea University to Lecture in Medical Physics Technology.

Faye has been involved in a number of poster publications since 2011, as listed below;

  • Is there scope for technologists to report on myocardial perfusion scintigraphy scans? (2011)
  • Distance Based Learning in Nuclear Medicine (2014)
  • Can the shelf life of the radiopharmaecutical Technician (Tc99m MAG3) be extended? (2014)
  • MPI vs Echocardiography: Is the ejection fraction comparable? (2016)

    This is an introductory model to the use of informatics and statistics, with content designed to meet the needs of students studying medical physics technology.

  • SHC232 Instrumentation Signal Processing and Imaging

    This is a module for students following Healthcare Science programmes that details the theory and application of physiological measurement and imaging in healthcare.

  • SHC243 Medical Imaging

    This is an introductory module for students following medical physics technology programmes into imaging techniques and their applications to healthcare.

  • SHC244 Practice of Radiation Protection

    This is an introductory module for students following medical physics technology programmes into radiation protection.

  • SHC245 Medical Equipment Lifecycle

    An introductory module for students following medical physics technology in equipment lifecycle management.

  • SHC246 Non-ionising Radiation and Physiological Measurements

    This is an introductory module for students following medical physics technology programmes into non-ionising radiation and detector systems.

  • SHC331 Healthcare Science Research Project

    This module will facilitate the planning, execution and dissemination of a research project with direct relevance to the clinical specialism. Students will be expected to plan, execute and disseminate a literature review, audit or service improvement project.

  • SHC342 Clinical Indication, Pathology and Patient Care

    A module designed to provide the medical physics technology student with the knowledge to support practice.

  • SHC343 Physics and Instrumentation

    This module provides students with the knowledge base to underpin the practice of nuclear medicine with emphasis on imaging and radionuclide assay.

  • SHC344 Radiobiology and Clinical Radiotherapy Physics

    This module will provide the student with the underpinning knowledge to support radiotherapy practice.

  • SHC345 Practice of Radiotherapy Physics

    This module provides the student with the underpinning knowledge required to critically select and use radiotherapy equipment in patient treatment.

  • SHC346 Framework of Radiation Governance and Risk Management

    The module follows on from modules in years one and two of the programme. The module is designed to equip the student with a high level body of knowledge that will enable them to function as a professional practitioner in the field of Radiation Physics following graduation, by providing the student with an understanding of the main sources of ionising and non-ionising radiation encountered in the clinical environment, the legislative and organizational framework surrounding their use and the principles of risk assessment and risk management. The subject matter will focus on principles of radiation protection, sources of radiation, dosimetry and risk assessment.

  • SHC347 Practice of Radiation Physics

    The module aims to consolidate and further develop the knowledge and skills gained in years 1 and 2 of the programme to the high level that will equip students with the knowledge and skills required to function as professional practitioners in the field of radiation physics following graduation, by equipping the student with an understanding of the performance testing of a wide range of equipment, measurement of patient doses, dose optimization and audit of radiation departments. The subject matter will focus on performance testing, dose measurement and optimization and audit of radiation departments.
