can anyone tell me what ultrasounds really is and how many years it is to finish it in college?

Question

i want to study ultrasounds or maybe sonograms.

Answer 1

sonograms are ultrasound, using sound waves to diagnose medical conditions. they are used with digital computers and read by radiologists. most commonly known to lay people for pregnancy exams, but can show all parts of the body, veins, arteries and organs. you need to go to an accredited school and pass a state board to recieve a license, two years. good pay, flexible hours.

Answer 2

I go to school for ultrasound. You can either go to a trade school, and that will be 2 years of school, or a real college and that will probably be 4 years. But you won't just be doing baby ultrasounds, there is alot more to ultrasound that OB/GYN
