In anwer to your question I think RN would be a more ideal choice as far as job opportunities. I am a Radiologic technologist and a sonographer. I went to x-ray school and then worked for about 6 years before going into ultrasound school. I am still only part-time in utrasound where I live in Iowa because there are just not as many ultrasound jobs as there are nursing jobs. I have actually decided to start the nursing program in January because of this. I need a more stable job that I can go anywhere with if need be and get a job. Hope this helps you! :) dani101781
