Dr. Russell Bull was appointed as a consultant radiologist at Bournemouth in 2000. Bournemouth had the first UK Canon Medical Systems Aquilion multislice CT installed in 2001 and has been the main UK reference site for Canon Medical Systems ever since. The Royal Bournemouth Hospital was the first hospital in the UK to install the Aquilion One single rotation, single heart-beat cardiac CT scanner in May 2009. An 128 slice Aquilion CXL was installed at Bournemouth in 2012, also incorporating AIDR 3D technology. Dr Bull initially worked as a general cross sectional radiologist and started a cardiac CT service at Bournemouth in 2004 using a Canon Medical Systems Aquilion 16. For the last 4 years he has worked almost exclusively as a cardiothoracic radiologist with his time split between cardiac CT and MRI. His interests include the promotion of CT as a low-dose technique and increasing efficiency within radiology departments by optimizing technology and workflows.
