EllenMarie, I am a radiologic technologist registered in x-ray, CT scan, and MRI. There are so few jobs in my field that I have been FORCED to go back to school for nursing (it's been almost 3 years since I could find work). Ultrasound will have more jobs-but not many, and there is no guarantee, many sonographers are out of work too. If you go to school, your life will be much easier if you go for something in demand, like nursing. I know so many x-ray techs that are paying off student loans, but can't find any work-it's awful. I hope this helps you...Good luck, whichever you decide!
