Associate in Applied Science - Vascular Technology

Program Overview

Vascular Technology is an Allied Health profession in which practitioners perform diagnostic and monitoring procedures using sound waves. The vascular sonographer performs examinations at the request or direction of a physician. Through subjective sampling and/or recording, the vascular sonographer proceeds with the examination to create an easily definable foundation of data from which a correct anatomic and physiologic diagnosis may be established for each patient.

The various types of ultrasound imaging equipment require a highly skilled sonographer to obtain the imaging information or other data required. The vascular sonographer must obtain appropriate history, physical findings, and pertinent laboratory data to adapt the imaging techniques to obtain comprehensive and diagnostic information.

Learning Outcomes

Perform high quality vascular tests on patients, while tailoring the examinations to bring out abnormalities present.
Develop skill in performing indirect and direct vascular imaging and Doppler assessment in all areas of the body.
Quantitate, subjectively evaluate, and interpret data collected to assist the physician in arriving at a diagnosis.
Develop clinical understanding of the anatomy, physiology, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of the major vascular diseases and disorders.
Communicate effectively in a professional manner with physicians, patients, and members of the healthcare team.

A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):

Pre-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment provided to F-1 students before completion of their course of study.
Post-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment available to F-1 students after completing their course of study.
24 Month STEM Extension: Students enrolled in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses can a 24-month extension after their initial Post-Completion OPT authorization.
