Medical Sonography AAS

Wake Tech Course ID: A45440

The Medical Sonography AAS Degree prepares students to use high-frequency sound waves to produce images of internal structures of the body.

The 21-month program covers physics, sectional anatomy, pathology, physiology, patient care and abdominal, vascular and obstetrical/gynecological sonography.

Students are placed at various health care facilities, where they work with hospital staff, including on a limited number of night and weekend rotations. During the clinical rotation, students will have contact with ill and injured patients.

Graduates can take the national registry examination to become a certified sonographer. Passing the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists exam earns the individual the ARRT(S) credential. Certified sonographers provide imaging services under the supervision of a physician who analyzes these images to aid in diagnosis.

Employment opportunities include hospitals, clinics, physicians' offices, medical laboratories, government agencies and industry.
