Echocardiography Technician Jobs in South Houston, TX

A Echocardiography Technician, also known as an Echocardiographer or Cardiac Sonographer, plays a vital role in the radiology field. These professionals operate specialized ultrasound machines to create images of a patient's heart, which aids physicians in diagnosing and treating cardiovascular conditions. Their daily tasks may include preparing patients for procedures, accurately positioning patients, operating and maintaining diagnostic equipment, analyzing images, and recording findings for doctors. They often work in hospitals, clinics, and diagnostic imaging centers.

Individuals pursuing this profession should have a strong background in human anatomy, excellent manual dexterity, strong technical skills, and the ability to communicate complex medical information to patients and medical staff. Certification is typically required and can be obtained through organizations such as the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) or Cardiovascular Credentialing International (CCI). Prior to becoming an Echocardiography Technician, a person may have roles such as a Medical Assistant, Radiologic Technician, or Diagnostic Medical Sonographer to gain relevant clinical experience and familiarity with diagnostic imaging.
