This program is jointly offered by Âé¶¹´«Ã½ of New Jersey and Rutgers Biomedical and Health Science–School of Health Related Programs (Rutgers-SHRP).\u00a0 Our Medical Imaging Science major is designed for students who would like to train in the fields of cardiac\/vascular sonography and\u00a0diagnostic medical sonograhy.\u00a0 These health care professionals will be trained to work alongside physicians and other professionals in the diagnosis and care of patients.<\/p>\n
Students must complete 96 credits, including General Education requirements and a preprofessional core.\u00a0 They then can be admitted to a professional program at Rutgers-SHRP.\u00a0 The Medical Imaging Science professional program consists of 4 academic semesters (up to 18 months) or full time study in one of four areas of specialization.\u00a0 Upon completion, students receive a joint B.S. Degree from Rutgers-SHRP and Âé¶¹´«Ã½, and qualify to declare a minor in Biology.<\/p>\n

\nCardiac Sonographers use ultrasound technology to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. \u00a0Working under the direction of a physician, cardiac sonographers are trained in diagnostic procedures, data analysis and documentation and operation of state of the art equipment.<\/p>\n
\nSonographers are highly skilled professionals qualified by education to provide patient services using diagnostic techniques under the supervision of a licensed Doctor of Medicine or Osteopathy. \u00a0Sonographers are trained in abdominal, obstetrical, gynecological and neonatal neurosonography ultrasound. using the most advanced ultrasound equipment..<\/p>\n\n
