Part 3
My career research choice is Sonography Technician and I pick this career choice
because I feel extremely interested in this work and to me this career choice describes
everything I am and everything I want to be for hopefully the rest of my life. In this
career
choice of Sono Tech, types of duties are Records and stores suitable images, using
camera
unit connected to the ultrasound equipment. Observes screen during scan to ensure the
image produced is satisfactory for diagnostic purposes, making adjustments to equipment

5. as required. Observes and cares for patients throughout examinations to ensure their
safety
and comfort. Provides sonogram and oral or written summary of technical findings to
physician for use in medical diagnosis. Being able to do light lifting and understand
patients and basically care about what you do I feel its al me. The type of degree I will
need is simply a 2year AS degree. As far as the pay to me its pretty good especially for
starters 45,115, then of course higher pay rate with more experience $64,126. This pay
rate is actually a little more than what I thought and im happier it more. Because I was
expecting that since its just a 2 year requirement with pretty much basic skills that the
rate
would be a little less but I guess not and I wont complain. Internet Sites
Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography
www.sdms.org I believe this site can help people who want to look more into this type of
career choice so they can know what to expect how to get there and the different choices
they have with this type of career choice. and it also help me to decide what route I
wanted to take.
