Diagnostic medical sonography is a radiologic and imaging sciences specialty with eight subspecialties. 大峡谷州立大学 offers six of these subspecialties. Diagnostic medical sonography is considered an entry-level profession in that students may enter GVSU without previous college experience and may aspire to complete the entire B.S. 四年学位课程. 学生 are required to choose a concentration in either general sonography (abdominal and obstetrics-gynecology) or echocardiography and vascular sonography. 学生 choosing echocardiography and vascular sonography spend their third year in adult echocardiography and then are assigned to either pediatric echocardiography or vascular sonography for their fourth year of study.

Breast ultrasound is offered as an emphasis in the DMS major. GVSU students desiring registration in breast ultrasound may complete the courses in this emphasis as electives while pursuing their initial credential in diagnostic and medical sonography. 在其他情况下, registered 超声波检验师 who find significant breast ultrasound to be part of their workload may return to GVSU to complete the coursework and qualify for the national examinations.

Sonographers practice a form of medical imaging that uses complex computerized high frequency sound wave and Doppler signal equipment to visualize subtle differences between healthy tissues and pathologic areas of the body, 评估血管流动信息, 并记录病理和其他情况. The sonographer must acquire excellent knowledge of sectional anatomy, 临床医学, 病理, 以及超声波仪器的使用. Sonographers are responsible for patient care during procedures, 其中可能包括住院病人, 门诊, 手术, 移动办公.

努力获得B的学生.S. degree in radiologic and imaging sciences with a major in diagnostic medical sonography from GVSU become eligible for the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS) examinations specific to the concentrations completed. Eligibility for ARDMS examinations is achieved upon completion of 1,680 contact hours (which occurs in November or December of the senior year before graduation the following April).
