Sonographer - OB/Gyn Per Diem
About The Position
The Sonographer Staff performs a variety of routine and complex imaging procedures using high frequency sound waves. Since ultrasound can be degraded or blocked by various tissues and materials including lung, bowel gas and bone, obtaining a sonogram is a tailored examination requiring technical skill to adjust the machine, experience to find appropriate "windows" that can transmit an undistorted ultrasound beam, and diagnostic knowledge to obtain extra images customized to the diagnosis of concern and to abnormalities seen while obtaining the basic image set. This need to heavily customize the examination to each patient and to recognize and diagnose pathology separates the sonographer from other imaging technologists in radiology. The Sonographer Staff must be registered by the ARDMS (American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers).
Requirements
- High school graduate or equivalent
- Graduate of a certified CAAHEP school of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Radiologic Technology or a two year allied health equivalent
- Must be ARDMS registered with an ABD or OB/GYN credential
Nice To Haves
- Twenty four (24) full months of clinical experience in Diagnostic Ultrasound preferred
