Sonography Week 2023
Our profession is all about capturing images and loving what we do. This years SonoWeek is about “living, loving and scanning” in Diagnostic Medical Sonography in Canada.
Sonography Week represents 5 days to celebrate our profession and the important role sonographers play in delivering quality healthcare to Canadians. This is an opportunity for us to highlight our credentials and the challenging work our members do to help diagnose disease and injury, monitor health and guide medical treatment.
This year we are asking you to Accept the Sonography #livelovescan Challenge: Send us your stories, or post a picture or video to social media showing what #livelovescan means to you. Why you love to scan and why you became a sonographer in the first place. Emails can be sent to info@sonographycanada.ca throughout the month of October.
This year, Sonography Week takes place October 2-6 , immediately following our Annual Conference.
We have SO many activities planned, we cannot wait to celebrate with you!
