What is your salary like as a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer/Ultrasound Tech (I know this will vary by location/experience)?

I’m being pressured to pursue nursing instead of sonography because it pays more/offers more advancement BUT from my research sonographers make more than nurses (in Arizona) and I have no desire to be a NP, PA, MD, or DO. At most I’d like to get into management in the future but I’m only 20 years old and have no experience so that won’t happen for awhile.

I am on a waitlist for the only accredited sonography program in Arizona so by the time I get in it’ll be 2023, 2024 or 2025 even. In which I assume sonography salaries will go up by then.

I really like sonography and my dream job is to be a pediatric sonographer in a children’s hospital.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
