Like many sonographers, I work in pain, with no guidelines to protect us.

I recently had 2-level cervical disc fusion and still have 2 other discs that may need surgery in the future. It is difficult to have that pain every day due to my job. I have decided to work part-time (I'm one of the lucky ones who can afford to do that).

We need to find a solution or every sonographer will be on long term disability by the end of our careers.

I have had chronic deblitating back pain for 25 years. I had one back surgery 12 years ago, and I've had two median nerve ablations. All that aside, ultrasound is annoperator dependent imaging modality where the operator must see the pathologyto image it. Rushing through exams is as bad as physicians rushing through visits. Things are missed, which only prolongs the inevitable. It's neither less expensive nor appropriate/acceptable medical treatment. Would you want your cancer missed because someone was in a hurry to get to the next patient?

increasing patient load, less time allowed for exams and increasing numbers of morbidly obese. Ouch
