| Abstract: | Accredited Medical Sonographers are highly specialised healthcare professionals who have specific knowledge, competence, and responsibility. While the profession of sonography is evolving in terms of career pathways and regulation, sonographers in NSW are divided according to pay, working conditions, career progression, and gender pay inequality. To retain quality staff amidst a national sonographer shortage, urgent award reform is needed. Professional equality and unification of sonographers along with career diversity and satisfaction is crucial to ensure NSW patients receive the highest quality healthcare. � 2024 The Author(s).
