"I have only done a few sonograms so far. I just finished school and did have an opportunity to assist with several and do a few independently. I look forward to learning more."

"I do have experience performing sonograms. I used to work with an OB/GYN physician and did all of his maternity testing. Unfortunately, there are times that the news is not always joyful. However, seeing the face of a new mother as she watches her baby's heartbeat on a screen is priceless. Sonograms are, by far, one of my favorite things to do."

Sharing what procedures you are most familiar with will allow the interviewer to see where your strengths are and could help determine what area you are assigned to if offered a position. It is always important to remember, that if you do not have a lot of experience with a certain procedure or in a certain area, be honest. It's better to say that you don't have experience and show a willingness to learn rather than giving the impression that you are accomplished at a skill when you are not.

"I have done sonograms before. I enjoy them, but would really like the opportunity to do more and learn more about them and the different things that can be detected using a sonogram."

Yes. First, you introduce yourself and explain the procedure to the patient. Then the patient is asked to lie supine and expose the abdominal region down to the pelvic area. Then apply a small amount of gel and scan.
