Ultrasound Schools

Ultrasound technology has advanced medical diagnostics substantially. Using special equipment to direct nonionizing, high frequency sound waves into areas of the patient's body, ultrasound technicians help doctors diagnose ailments and view pregnancies. Ultrasound schools offer degree programs that allow graduates to operate the equipment, which collects reflected echoes and forms an image that may be videotaped, transmitted, or photographed for interpretation and diagnosis by a physician. Ultrasound schools offer degrees ranging from certification to two-year degrees.

Ultrasound colleges offer a curriculum that is common to most health care degrees, including medical terminology, human anatomy and physiology, and more. Additionally, ultrasound programs teach students how to operate the complex equipment and interpret and prepare results for physicians. If you are interested in health care and want to work directly with patients, take a look at the many great ultrasound colleges! Get started in this rewarding career today.

The starting salary for ultrasound technicians is $53,000 and can grow to be as much as $63,000 with experience.
Ultrasound Work Environment:
A degree as an ultrasound technician provides more than the opportunity to inspect the fetuses of pregnant mothers, as some may think. Ultrasound technicians also use their skills to pinpoint diseases in other parts of the body, such as the eyes, heart and the brain. Ultrasound technicians are also used to study blood flow and muscle movement in patients. Opportunities are plentiful for ultrasound technicians in the health industry, and they can find work in hospitals and private practices. They also enjoy the flexibility of a 40 hour work week and weekends off, as well as excellent health benefits and ample vacation time.
