Significant Points

• About 6 out of 10 sonographers were employed by hospitals, and most of the rest worked in offices of physicians or in medical and diagnostic laboratories, including diagnostic imaging centers.
• Sonographers may train in hospitals, vocational-technical institutions, colleges and universities, and the Armed Forces.
