Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month 

The Diagnostic Medical Imaging Program celebrates Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM) in October each year.  MUAM was established to create awareness of the role diagnostic medical sonographers play in the medical community, and to educate the public about medical ultrasound and its many uses in healthcare.

Ultrasound Awareness Month Information Tables

Diagnostic Medical Imaging Program students and faculty took to the floor to share their knowledge about the value of Sonography, providing SUNY Downstate students, faculty, staff and visitors with information and ultrasound trivia.

Phantom Scan-tom Event

Students created unique ultrasound phantoms that when scanned presented simulated pathologies such as masses and cysts.  This is a fun, creative and educational event that help students understand the role physics play in sonography.

Each year, the Diagnostic Medical Imaging Program hosts a Lambda Nu Induction Ceremony. Lambda Nu is the national honor society for the radiologic and imaging sciences.
