During Medical Radiation Sciences Week, we celebrate the diagnostic medical sonographers (DMSs) at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre. These health care professionals use ultrasound technology to create images of the inside of the body in order to assist physicians in diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions. Also known as a sonographer or ultrasound technologist, they operate specialized equipment to produce high frequency sound waves that form visual images, known as sonograms or ultrasounds. Sonographers must understand human anatomy, accurately operate the equipment, and interpret the images to provide accurate information for diagnosis and treatment.
Join us in thanking this amazing team for their hard work and dedication to the science of medical imaging!
