Breast Sonographer - Clinical Trial

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Breast Ultrasound Sonographer to join our clinical team in New York City and perform breast ultrasounds as part of a clinical research study. This role delivers high-quality, independent assessments to research-grade standards. You will perform and interpret breast ultrasound scans for participants enrolled in the study, producing timely results to a standardized electronic case report form. You will work in conjunction with the study's principal investigator to ensure acquisition and reporting meet research-grade quality, working within the study acquisition SOP and Neko's escalation protocols.

• Collaborate with the multidisciplinary research team to deliver Neko's clinical trial into breast cancer risk.
• Adhere to the study acquisition SOP consistently.
• Maintain and log equipment QA on-site, liaising directly with the study PI and research team where needed.

Requirements

• ARDMS RDMS certification with the Breast (BR) specialty, or ARRT Breast Sonography certification (ARRT(BS)). These are the two pathways the ACR recognizes for personnel performing breast ultrasound.
• Documented, current breast ultrasound practice, with a minimum of two years' full-time-equivalent breast scanning.
• Independent breast ultrasound scanning and structured reporting experience in an ACR-accredited breast imaging setting or an equivalent quality-assurance framework.
• Strong communication skills, able to explain complex information clearly to study participants.
• Commitment to high clinical standards and active engagement in ongoing professional development.
• Eligible to work in the United States.
