The paper concludes that being an ultrasound tech is truly the author's passion because she feels it is less stressful and that she would enjoy being able to diagnose diseases.From the Paper:
"A CT technologist is a specialized radiology technologist who specifically deals with performing CAT scans. The images produced are non-invasive and specific to the technology, and often use contrast agents to form pictures of the internal organs. Educational programs are between 2 to 4 years in length and stress basic medical knowledge as well as knowledge of equipment. Candidates must also successfully complete the exam provided by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT), the main organization for CT technologists."Sample of Sources Used:
