Sonography vs radiography tech

I'm really torn between which field is a better fit for me and this seems like the perfect forum to ask. What I'm really looking for is what the pro's and con's are for working in both fields. Honestly if there's literally anything you can tell me about being a sonographer or a radiography tech please include that. Also, sorry this post is so long.

>Questions I have whether you are a radiography tech or a Sonographer:

-Did you get an associates or a bachelors and did you see a difference in pay with either?

-How difficult was the program that you were in?

-Do you feel that your job physically takes a toll on your body? What do you do to keep yourself healthy?

-Can a radiography tech (or sonographer) advance in any way in their field (if so how)?

-What are some specific challenges you face daily?

-How do you feel about the future of your field? Do you think it's a good field to get into?

-What do you wish you knew about your field before you went to school/started working?

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
