Job description

We are the heart and science of medicine. We are UVM Medical Center.

For full-time positions, eligible candidates can receive a sign-on bonus of $10,000.

Job Description:

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 abnormalities seen during image acquisition. This customization and diagnostic capability distinguish sonographers from other imaging technologists in radiology.

Qualifications:

• Must be registered by the ARDMS (American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers).
• High school graduate or equivalent, graduate of a certified CAAHEP school of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Radiologic Technology, or a two-year allied health program.
• Must have ARDMS registration with an ABD or OB/GYN credential.
• Preferred: Twenty-four (24) months of full clinical experience in Diagnostic Ultrasound.
