Technologie de l'échographie médicale (142.G0) is a technical DEC in health sciences at Collège Ahuntsic that trains medical ultrasound technologists to collect the images and videos that specialist physicians use to reach a diagnosis. The page states that students learn to carry out ultrasound examinations of different regions of the body, including abdominal, pelvic, obstetric and gynecological, cardiac, musculoskeletal, vascular, and mammary exams. Admission requires specific secondary-level mathematics and physical-science prerequisites, and the page notes that the program is contingented, meaning the number of applicants generally exceeds the places available. It also mentions a Ministry of Health and Social Services scholarship program supporting students in medical imaging fields who are entering their third year of training, in addition to the college's regular financial aid and foundation bursaries. The program suits students with an interest in anatomy and diagnostic technology who are comfortable working directly with patients, can operate precise imaging equipment, and want a health-sciences career that combines technical skill with an examination-based routine. Graduates typically go on to work in hospital and clinical diagnostic imaging departments alongside radiologists and other medical specialists.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The program's own page sets two Secondary 4 prerequisites: CST mathematics (or Mathematique 426) and ST or ATS science (or Sciences physiques 416). Beyond those courses, admission follows College Ahuntsic's general regulation R-11: a Diplome d'etudes secondaires covering them, or an equivalent Diplome d'etudes professionnelles with the required 5th-secondary language-of-instruction, 5th-secondary second-language and 4th-secondary mathematics courses, plus eligible citizenship or immigration status. Applicants whose Secondary 5 language of instruction was not French must pass the College's own French-language test. The program is limited to 50 places and is processed through SRAM's three-round system; the program page also notes candidates should be competent in written and spoken French for the clinical component of the training.

Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through the Service régional d'admission du Montréal métropolitain (SRAM): Collège Ahuntsic's own site confirms it follows SRAM's standard three-round system for Fall entry and two-round system for Winter entry, which for the current cycle puts the Fall 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 March 2027 and the Winter 2027 equal-consideration date at 1 November 2026 (applications opening 15 September 2026), with later rounds in late April, late May and late November while seats remain.
