Who makes the most money RN or ultra sound tech?
On average, Registered Nurses (RNs) earn more money than ultrasound technicians. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, RNs earned a median annual wage of $77,600 in May 2020, while ultrasound technicians earned a median annual wage of $74,350. However, it's important to note that salaries can vary significantly depending on factors such as education, experience, location, and specialty.

Similarly, ultrasound technicians who have additional training and certification may earn higher salaries than those who have only basic qualifications.
