  • Conducting Ultrasound Scans:
    • Position patients properly on the examination table to capture clear, high-quality images.
    • Apply a conductive gel to the patient's skin to facilitate the transmission of sound waves, ensuring the patient is comfortable during the process.
    • Operate ultrasound equipment, adjusting settings such as depth, focus, and frequency to capture optimal images of organs, tissues, or blood flow.
    • Use a hand-held ultrasound transducer (probe) to move over the patient's body and capture images or videos of the target area.
    • Obtain diagnostic-quality images and videos of organs, blood vessels, muscles, or fetuses (if performing obstetric ultrasounds).
  • Patient Safety and Comfort:
    • Ensure patient comfort and safety during the ultrasound procedure, explaining each step and providing reassurance.
    • Monitor the patient for signs of discomfort or distress and adjust positioning or equipment settings as needed.
    • Address patient concerns or discomfort, particularly for patients who may be anxious or nervous about the procedure.
    • Ensure a clean and sterile environment, adhering to infection control standards.
  • Image Analysis and Reporting:
    • Capture high-quality, diagnostic images that meet the criteria for medical evaluation and diagnosis.
    • Review and analyze ultrasound images for clarity and completeness before submitting them to the physician or radiologist.
    • Provide preliminary findings or impressions based on ultrasound images to the physician, while adhering to professional and legal guidelines.
    • Ensure that all images are labeled correctly and stored in the hospital's electronic health record (EHR) system or PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System).
  • Post-Procedure Care:
    • Assist the patient after the procedure, ensuring they are stable and comfortable before leaving the examination room.
    • Remove any gel from the patient's skin and offer tissues or towels for cleaning.
    • Provide patients with aftercare instructions, especially if additional follow-up appointments or tests are required.
    • Advise patients to follow up with their physician for review of results or further treatment.
  • Equipment Maintenance and Troubleshooting:
    • Regularly inspect and maintain ultrasound equipment, ensuring it is functioning properly and in good working condition.
    • Perform basic troubleshooting for equipment malfunctions, and report technical issues to the appropriate team for repair.
    • Ensure the ultrasound probe is properly cleaned and sanitized between patients, following infection control protocols.
  • Documentation and Record-Keeping:
    • Maintain accurate records of procedures performed, including patient information, images, and reports.
    • Ensure all documentation is completed in compliance with hospital policies, regulatory standards, and patient confidentiality guidelines (e.g., HIPAA).
    • Ensure that images and results are stored correctly and are readily accessible for review by physicians or radiologists.
  • Collaboration with Medical Team:
    • Work closely with physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide accurate imaging for diagnosis and treatment.
    • Communicate effectively with physicians and other medical staff to discuss the quality of images or any potential findings that may require further investigation.
    • Assist in preparing reports or other documentation as needed for medical records or treatment planning.
  • Professional Development and Training:
    • Participate in continuing education opportunities, staying current with the latest advancements in ultrasound technology and imaging techniques.
    • Obtain and maintain certifications and licensure required for ultrasound technology, including RDMS (Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer) certification and Basic Life Support (BLS) certification.
