A Sonographer is a "technologist" and not a "technician". A sonographer must be able to read films/images just as a Radiologist does. A Sonographer always has to "pre-read" the films before the M.D's ever see them. This is the reason a Board Certified Sonographer's learning curve and pay is so much higher than any of the other radiography professions.
