Why Sonography
It was exactly one year ago that I became interests in Sonography, when unfortunately, my sister in law passed away in Ecuador. She had pain in her stomach for a long time, she went to the doctor several times and they couldn’t find anything wrong with her and kept saying she was fine. She then started to notice bleeding every time she used the bathroom, so my mother in law decided to take her to a different doctor, only to find out she had cancer. Not long after that, they found a tumor in her head and after two weeks, she became unconscious and passed away. This made me realize that the medicine world in my country is not as advanced as here in United States, and I would love to take this advancement in medicine and technology there where we could save a lot of lives.
There are a lot of qualities that makes up a good sonographer, for me one of the most important is to be emotionally stable. We need to have empathy for others, feel their pain; but it is very important that we know how to contain ourselves when it is a hard time for a patient so that we give them strength. Another quality for a sonographer will be having good communication skills. This is important because we are going to have to communicate with other doctors as well as with patients, explaining imaging procedures, so that they understand what they are about to go through. Having technical skills is a good quality for a sonographer as well, since we are going to be operating imaging equipment. We need to follow instructions and pay close attention to our images to help doctors properly diagnose and treat patients.
My responsibility as a sonographer student is related to the responsibility of the faculty and clinical preceptors and in turn to my success in sonography, in the fact that I need to act and behave as if I am already a sonographer. I have to be responsible with all my assignments and be on time everyday for class. I also have to follow all clinical procedures and be careful with my classmates just like I will with my patients. I also have to follow all the teacher’s instructions and close pay attention to everything I am doing. All of these will definitely help me with my success as a sonographer student.
Before this class started, I wasn’t expecting having all these labs. I thought this class was going to be just like a “take note” class with a textbook. I am very thankful for these labs because they definitely helped me determine that sonography is a good fit for me and that this is what I really want to do. The labs gave us a good feeling of what this career is about, and it helped me understand better what I m going to be doing for the rest of my life. It wasn’t easy for me to locate the different organs at the beginning, but in our final lab exam I did pretty good and that just proves that with practice you just get better at it.
If I end up having doubts about sonography in the future, my next choice of inter.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
