Ultrasound technicians use sound (sonic) waves to capture images of the internal organs and tissues for the diagnosis and treatment of medical problems. This medical field is called sonography. Utilizing specialized ultrasound equipment, the sonographer takes readings of the appropriate areas and angles as requested by the physician, and sends them back for interpretation. Unlike other diagnostic imaging systems that function using radiation, ultrasound is completely safe for both the ultrasound technologist and the patient. Most ultrasound techs work in hospitals or diagnostic imaging centers, and are in good physical condition in order to maneuver patients during ultrasounds.

Candidates for any certified ultrasound technician positions offered through Med Travelers must have completed an accredited education program. Additional consideration may be given to ultrasound technologists registered with the ARDMS. Individuals with a general radiology or healthcare background often acquire additional education to qualify for a career as a sonographer. Ultrasound technologists must keep their skills up to date to maintain valid certification.

In the current job market, an ultrasound technologist can earn an average salary between $53,000 and $58,000 per year. The median salary for an experienced ultra sound tech is a bit higher at $61,000 annually, and the top ten percent can earn in excess of $72,000 per year.
