ARRT Sonography (SONO) Resources

Jump to the section you need most.

Understanding the exact breakdown of the ARRT Sonography test will help you know what to expect and how to most effectively prepare. The ARRT Sonography has multiple-choice questions . The exam will be broken down into the sections below:

ARRT Sonography Exam Blueprint
Domain Name % Number of
Questions
Patient Care 8% 8
Physical Principles of Ultrasound 32% 32
Abdominal Procedures 21% 21
Obstetrical and Gynecological Procedures 30% 30
Superficial Structures and Other Sonographic Procedures 9% 9

ARRT Sonography Study Tips by Domain

  • Verify patient identity with two identifiers and match the order/exam site; red flag: scanning the wrong patient or wrong side is a reportable safety event.
  • Screen for pregnancy status, allergies (latex/gel), infection precautions, and anticoagulant use; contraindication: invasive procedures without coagulation history or required consent.
  • Use standard precautions and disinfect transducers per probe type; common trap: using low-level disinfection when high-level is required after endocavitary use.
  • Position to optimize breathing/comfort and hemodynamics; priority rule: stop and reassess if the patient becomes hypotensive, syncopal, or acutely dyspneic.
  • Communicate exam steps and obtain/confirm consent when applicable; red flag: proceeding with an exam the patient refuses or doesn’t understand.
  • Document pertinent history, pain location, fasting status, and last menstrual period when relevant; common trap: missing key history that changes protocol (e.g., RUQ pain with fever suggesting urgent biliary evaluation).
  • Optimize output and exposure by using ALARA; priority rule: reduce power and dwell time when imaging early pregnancy or sensitive structures.
  • Adjust frequency, depth, and focus for the target; common trap: using too low a frequency for superficial anatomy, reducing resolution unnecessarily.
  • Recognize and manage artifacts (shadowing, enhancement, mirror, reverberation); red flag: mistaking posterior enhancement for a solid mass when it supports a cystic lesion.
  • Apply Doppler correctly with angle correction ≤60°; threshold: Doppler velocity measurements are unreliable when the angle is >60° or uncorrected.
  • Control PRF/scale, wall filter, and gain to avoid aliasing and noise; common trap: calling turbulence/pathology when aliasing is due to low scale.
  • Understand attenuation and time gain compensation; priority rule: fix overall gain/TGC before changing dynamic range so you don’t “erase” true pathology.
  • Gallbladder/biliary: confirm fasting status and assess for stones with shadowing and mobility; red flag: nonmobile echogenic focus without shadow may be a polyp, not a stone.
  • Liver/portal HTN: evaluate portal/hepatic veins with Doppler and look for ascites/splenomegaly; common trap: missing hepatofugal flow because color scale is set too high.
  • Pancreas: use graded compression and left lateral decubitus or water technique if needed; priority rule: document if bowel gas limits the exam rather than overcalling a “mass.”
  • Aorta/IVC: measure the aorta outer wall to outer wall in AP and transverse; threshold: an AP diameter ≥3.0 cm is aneurysmal and needs clear documentation.
  • Kidneys/bladder: assess for hydronephrosis and ureteral jets when indicated; red flag: mild collecting system fullness can be physiologic if the bladder is overly distended.
  • Spleen: measure maximal length and evaluate for trauma-related free fluid when relevant; priority rule: in suspected rupture, prioritize FAST-type views and rapid documentation over exhaustive measurements.
  • First-trimester OB: confirm intrauterine pregnancy with yolk sac/embryo and correlate with symptoms; red flag: positive pregnancy test with no IUP and adnexal pain requires ectopic evaluation.
  • Fetal biometry: use correct planes (BPD/HC at transthalamic level, AC at portal sinus, FL with full diaphysis); common trap: measuring off-axis inflates gestational age.
  • Placenta/amniotic fluid: document placental location and distance to internal os when low-lying; threshold: placenta covering/within close proximity to the os warrants follow-up per protocol.
  • Cervix: measure transvaginally when preterm risk/short cervix suspected; priority rule: avoid fundal pressure that can falsely lengthen or shorten the cervix.
  • Adnexa/ovaries: assess size, follicles, masses, and Doppler if torsion is suspected; red flag: enlarged ovary with peripheral follicles and reduced/absent venous flow is urgent.
  • Fibroids/endometrium: document location and relationship to cavity and measure endometrium in true long axis; common trap: measuring including fluid or oblique plane overestimates thickness.
  • Thyroid: characterize nodules with composition, echogenicity, margins, and calcifications; red flag: taller-than-wide shape or microcalcifications increases suspicion and must be documented.
  • Breast: correlate with palpable area and clock-face position and measure in three dimensions; priority rule: any suspicious feature requires appropriate BI-RADS-style documentation and targeted follow-up recommendation per site policy.
  • Scrotum: compare testes, evaluate epididymis, and use Doppler with low flow settings; red flag: absent intratesticular flow in acute pain is torsion until proven otherwise.
  • Vascular (DVT): compress vein segments fully and use color/spectral as adjunct; threshold: noncompressibility is the key criterion—do not “rule out” DVT with Doppler alone.
  • MSK/soft tissue: distinguish cystic vs solid and look for hyperemia in infection; common trap: calling cellulitis “abscess” without a drainable fluid collection.
  • Interventional assistance: verify correct patient, site, and probe disinfection level before guiding; contraindication: proceeding without confirming anticoagulation status or required timeout/documentation.

Sorry, but it didn't help me.

MARIA , Austin, Texas

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you ! The tests really helped me prepare for the advanced level MRI ARRT Registry exam. 

Anthony , California

Thank you! I had tried to pass this exam before I found your site and was never able to do it. After your practice exams, I was able to pass on the next attempt!

Jane, PA

Thank you for being a great tool site for my VI certification exam. It helped me prepare for "battle". Practice makes perfect, alright.

Noel , NY

Great practice for taking the MRI registry..the test gave me a baseline on the knowledge I have and the knowledge I need to study more on before taking the exam. It helped with the verbiage used for the questions.

DEBORA , Allen, Texas

Like MRI in Practice.
