I am trying to find an online sonography institution, can anyone bring up to date me what the name are?
No idea. Why do u need it. Is this related to TTC.
You can FIND one online but can't GET YOUR DEGREE online for sonography. It requires clinical time in hospitals and possibly doctor's office. I am a Registered Radiology Tech, so I know this info.
Answers: Here's an email I received back from inquiring about this a few days ago.
