Your duties will include performing diagnostic recordings, precise measurements, and calculations of echocardiography images and Doppler hemodynamic data (at rest and with stress), with or without ultrasound enhancement agents. You may also be responsible for identifying patients requiring enhancement agents, placing peripheral intravenous catheters, and administering ultrasound enhancement agents as per policy guidelines.
