Ultrasound Technician

An ultrasound technician, also known as a sonographer, is a healthcare professional who uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. These images help doctors diagnose and monitor medical conditions involving organs, tissues, and blood flow. The technician prepares patients, operates ultrasound equipment, and captures detailed images that are vital for accurate diagnosis. Ultrasound procedures are non-invasive, painless, and safe, making them a widely used tool in medical imaging. Their expertise is essential in fields like obstetrics, cardiology, and general medicine.
