i am from ontario and the ultrasound schooling courses are limited. is there a good accredited school in the states? and can i take the course there and come back to canada to work? if so what extras will need to be done to go to school in the states and to come back to canada after to work?

I am particularly interested in Seatle WA, Portland OR, Colorado, Texas or advice will help if you have experiance and or knowledge about ultrasound school. Thanks

I want to go to school for one of these professions. Im 38 yrs old and wanted opinions on each and the amount of schooling needed. Im looking for a secure career that will pay well

where can i find a school that teach ultrasound in san jose, california or close to it?

In general, MRI techs usually go to school for radiologic technology first, then cross-train in MRI.
Ultrasound schools:
College of DuPage – Glen Ellyn, IL
John A. Logan College – Carterville, IL
Northwestern Memorial Hospital – Chicago, IL
Rush University – Chicago, IL
South Suburban College – South Holland, IL
Southern Illinois University – Carbondale, IL

what u have to study how long in school ho wmuch they get paid per hour?

I am unable to decide whether I should enroll in the MRI Tech program or the Echo Sonography (Ultrasound of the heart) program. It is my understanding that the MRI Tech guidelines have recently changed and you no longer have to be certified in Radiology before you can become an MRI Tech. You can just take an MRI Tech program and sit for the ARMRIT exam. Will it be difficult for me to find employment because most employers are going to want me to be able to not only do MRI’s but also X-Rays? Or will I be able to make a decent living ($30+ per hr) as an MRI Tech here in CA without having any Radiology experience?
What about going the Sonography route? Should I do that instead? Will I have better luck having a hospital hire me? Are there more jobs in ultrasound available than in MRI?
Thanks!

I do not have a degree. I am interested in ultrasound or x=ray, but at a Technical College, where I don’t have to take a regular college courses. So, if I go to a Tech and get certified would I be able to find a job, or do companies require a 2 year degree?

I’m considering a career change and have always been interested in healthcare. From what I’ve read RNs, RTs or ultrasound technicians have a strong future in healthcare. Can anyone tell me how much school is involved in becoming an UT? I only have some college completed and would need to go back to school – the question is, for how long?
Thanks for your help!

I want to start school online to be an ultrasound tech. Not sure which schhol to choose. There are so many online schools and not sure which one offers this or where to start so any help would be great. thanks for your time and help
