Key Responsibilities: Pre-Procedure Preparation: Review patient medical history and physician orders to ensure the correct type of ultrasound procedure is performed.

Conducting Ultrasound Scans: Position patients properly on the examination table to capture clear, high-quality images. Apply a conductive gel to the patient's skin to facilitate the transmission of sound waves, ensuring the patient is comfortable during the process.

Ensure that all images are labeled correctly and stored in the hospital's electronic health record (EHR) system or PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System). Post-Procedure Care: Assist the patient after the procedure, ensuring they are stable and comfortable before leaving the examination room. Remove any gel from the patient's skin and offer tissues or towels for cleaning. Provide patients with aftercare instructions, especially if additional follow-up appointments or tests are required. Advise patients to follow up with their physician for review of results or further treatment. Equipment Maintenance and Troubleshooting: Regularly inspect and maintain ultrasound equipment, ensuring it is functioning properly and in good working condition. Perform basic troubleshooting for equipment malfunctions, and report technical issues to the appropriate team for repair. Ensure the ultrasound probe is properly cleaned and sanitized between patients, following infection control protocols. Documentation and Record-Keeping: Maintain accurate records of procedures performed, including patient information, images, and reports. Ensure all documentation is completed in compliance with hospital policies, regulatory standards, and patient confidentiality guidelines (e.g., HIPAA). Ensure that images and results are stored correctly and are readily accessible for review by physicians or radiologists. Collaboration with Medical Team: Work closely with physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide accurate imaging for diagnosis and treatment. Communicate effectively with physicians and other medical staff to discuss the quality of images or any potential findings that may require further investigation. Assist in preparing reports or other documentation as needed for medical records or treatment planning.
