Ultrasound Imaging Systems
The Ultrasound Imaging Systems program provides formal advanced training at METC. The instructional design of this program’s courses is group lockstep.
This program is a consolidated program with three military services that is designed to provide training on: equipment theory of operation, clinical applications, related physiology, circuit analysis, troubleshooting, calibration, and safe operational procedures.
Methods of instruction include, but are not limited to: lecture, demonstration, online materials, simulations, laboratory practice, and practical exercises on ultrasound technology. Quality control and safety techniques are emphasized throughout the program.
Special Information:
Navy personnel attend this program as part of their initial Biomedical Equipment Technician training.
To obtain the 8410 Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC), this program functions as a required course within the Biomedical Equipment Technician training program (B-326-1000).
Navy students must successfully complete this program to fulfill passing requirements of the B-326-1000 program. For Army and Air Force, this program is separate from the METC Biomedical Equipment Technician program (MOS: 68A10 and AFSC: 4A231).
