Diagnostic Medical Sonography: More Than Just Pregnancy Scans

Diagnostic Medical Sonographer with a patient
From the Heart to the Kidneys: The Many Roles of a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer

When most people hear “ultrasound,” they picture an expectant parent seeing their baby for the first time. While obstetrics is an important part of the profession, diagnostic medical sonography goes far beyond pregnancy scans. Sonographers are trained to capture detailed images of the body that help physicians diagnose and treat a wide variety of conditions.


A Career Beyond Obstetrics

Sonographers are skilled in imaging organs such as the heart, liver, kidneys, and blood vessels. They play an essential role in detecting cardiovascular disease, identifying tumors or cysts, and monitoring conditions that affect internal organs. This makes diagnostic medical sonography a vital part of modern healthcare.
