Diagnostic Medical Sonography

Associate Degree Program

诊断医学超声是当今最安全的医学成像专业之一. Sonography, or ultrasound, 是否使用非侵入性诊断医学成像程序来可视化身体的器官或系统. As a diagnostic medical sonographer, 你将使用特殊的设备来引导高频声波进入病人的解剖区域. 声波从被击中的建筑物表面反弹,在显示器上形成图像. 您将使用这些图像来帮助合格的医生做出医学诊断.

乔治城校区提供诊断医学超声检查的一般学习集中. 威尔明顿校区提供两个学习重点:一般 & cardiovascular.

一般的学习集中在腹部区域, obstetrics/gynecology, superficial structures, and vascular. 心血管学习集中于有助于诊断与心脏和血管疾病相关的异常的程序.
