Diagnostic Medical Sonography Career

Diagnostic Medical Sonography

 

Diagnostic Medical Sonography is an exciting career and Mandl School, the College of Allied Health is one of the few highly regarded medical schools that offer a degree. Diagnostic Medical Sonographers use specialized equipment to generate images used for assessing and diagnosing various medical conditions.

Diagnostic Medical Sonography Offers Great Opportunities

Many people associate sonography, which utilizes sound waves, with pregnancy. It’s how a fetus can be seen in the womb. But this technology has many other applications in the diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions in the abdomen, breast, heart and blood vessels and, more recently, in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal problems.

  • A diagnostic medical sonographer’s responsibilities may include:
  • Taking a patient history
  • Preparing and maintaining the diagnostic equipment
  • Generating images through the use of sonographic equipment
  • Determining if the ultrasound procedure has captured all the necessary images and if the quality is adequate for diagnosis
  • Analyzing technical information
  • Communicating with and providing a report to the interpreting physician who makes a diagnosis based on the images
