I am considering changing career direction towards diagnostic medical sonography. I am a biologist and currently hold a bachelors and a masters in biological/environmental sciences but I have no medical background. My questions are:
- What kind of program do you recommend? At this stage in my life, I would prefer a shorter degree program but I understand that my lack of medical background may necessitate further training.
- Is studying abroad a sensible option in this field? I obtained my masters degree in the UK and I would love to go back if I choose to study sonography. However, I am worried about a foreign degree not being recognised in the US. Do you know of any options to obtain clinical experience in another country while earning a CAAHEP accredited degree?
