This role includes conducting comprehensive breast sonography, assisting with and performing ultrasound-guided breast biopsies and procedures, and evaluating peripheral vascular anatomy and pathology. The technologist ensures accurate image acquisition and documentation to support timely diagnosis and patient care. This position requires strong clinical judgment, excellent communication skills, and a commitment to compassionate, patient-centered care.
