Ultrasound Boards


Ultrasound is the single longest specialty for radiology. It takes the most time to learn and the longest time to be good at it. I'm talking years to be good. (I ask myself all the time why I picked the most difficult, Maybe I'm crazy) Now most of the other modalities only have one official board test to take and pass to become an official professional in that field. However, ultrasound once again wants to be different. To become a Diagnostic Medical Ultrasonographer you must take not one test but two really gruesome board certified tests. One of the tests you must pass is the physics boards. The other can either be over the abdomen or OB/GYN. So I just want all of you to understand why I haven't blogged for the last bit. Also I want to post that in August I passed my physics boards. So one down and one to go!! Hopefully I will take my OB/GYN test in December and be certified.
