Ultrasound

Catawba Valley Medical Center, Catawba Valley Imaging Center and Catawba Valley Maternity Services utilize state of the art sonographic equipment.

Our Staff: All technologists are registered by The American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS). To obtain certification, medical professionals must pass a rigorous examination that tests their knowledge and practical, real-world skills, all of which take years of training and experience to acquire. When a sonography professional holds certification from ARDMS, you know that he or she provides high-quality care and meets the highest standards.

Our Facilities: Each facility is accredited by the American College of Radiology (ACR). The ACR awards accreditation to facilities for the achievement of high practice standards after a peer-review evaluation of its practice. Image quality and procedure evaluations are conducted by board-certified radiologists and medical physicists who are experts in the field. The program also evaluates personnel qualifications, adequacy of facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs.

Our Promise: When you choose a Catawba facility, you know that:

  • Your hospital, clinic or health center has voluntarily gone through a rigorous review process to be sure it meets nationally-accepted standards
  • The personnel are well qualified, through education and certification, to perform and interpret your medical images and administer your radiation therapy treatments
  • The equipment is appropriate for the test or treatment you will receive, and the facility meets or exceeds quality assurance and safety guidelines.
