Message from the Chair of Diagnostic
Medical Sonography:
Want to know if ultrasound college and a
career in sonography is for you? Try answering the following questions:
- Does your curiosity get the best of you?
- Do you like working independently?
- Are you self-motivated and directed?
- Do you like to analyze things?
If you answered YES then sonography may
be for you. Diagnostic Medical Sonography (DMS) is commonly called
ultrasound or sonography. This imaging profession combines the knowledge
of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and the use of computerized
technology to aid in the diagnoses of medical conditions.
Sonographers use sound waves to evaluate
the human body anatomy and blood flow circulation. While performing the
sonogram they use independent judgment to accurately differentiate
between normal and pathological findings. As part of the health care
team, sonographers work under the direct supervision of physicians.
