Overview

A first of its kind in Australia, and allows students to enter a niche medical profession with no prior degree in health sciences. This course will enable you to apply sonographic knowledge and practical scanning skills in the diagnostic imaging setting. Medical Sonographers take diagnostic images using ultrasonic equipment to create still, video or 3D studies of anatomy and diagnostic data. They scan, analyse and modify images to optimise the information and require highly developed patient care and communication skills. This is a high demand course and places are limited.
