Doctor NOS

Dr. Sally Ayesa is a dual trained radiologist and nuclear medicine physician working in Sydney and the NSW Central Coast, specialising in chest and oncology imaging. She is an academic at Sydney University, where she is completing a PhD in medical imaging education. Sally is also on the editorial board for Radiopaedia, recently co-convening the international Radiopaedia 2022 virtual conference. She is passionate about radiology education and training, currently a member of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiology curriculum assessment committee and a director of radiology training on the Central Coast. Sally loves to engage in conversations about education and gender diversity in medical imaging, and is the proud mother of two children.
In this episode, we discuss her journey into radiology and nuclear medicine combining her love for physics with her love for clinical medicine. She discusses the importance of role-modelling within radiology and what movements gender representation has made within radiology, as well as her passion for medical education and work in Radiopaedia. Sally also provides some tips for passing radiology examinations, as someone who topped the radiology part two examinations across Australia and New Zealand.
