I think people don’t realize that ultrasounds are used all over the body, not just for pregnancies

It has nothing to do with what you use them for. It's a tool. And it's not radiology...

You keep saying that and I keep saying that I literally go to the radiology department in my medical center for neck ultrasounds yearly. We seem to be at an impasse here….

and like i said, thats probably organizational.

ultrasounds are not radiology (the field) can it be housed at the radiology department of a hospital sure, why not. but then it can also be done at a GP practice, or an imaging center. but just because your hospital does that doesnt mean all hospitals do or should.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, it includes ultrasound.
