Only SME I know is a "Subject Matter Expert," which is also known as a specialist.\n\nAs I look this up, however, I see there is a Sports Medicine: Exercise Science degree (a person is John Smith, SME.)  That person has a speciality in, you guessed it, excercise training for sports medicine.

Radiology is the medical specialty that utilizes and interprets imaging technologies to diagnose disease. Traditionally it was the branch of medical science dealing with the medical use of X-rays emitted by X-ray machines or other such radiation devices for the purpose of obtaining visual information as part of medical imaging. Radiologists now also use all other imaging technologies (such as ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging) to diagnose or treat disease. Interventional radiology is the performance of (usually minimally invasive) medical procedures with the help of medical imaging.\n\nOutside of the medical field, radiology also encompasses the examination of the inner structure of objects using X-rays or other penetrating radiation.\n\nwhere...\n\nSonographers are medical professionals who operate ultrasonic imaging devices to produce diagnostic images and scans, videos, or 3D volumes of anatomy and diagnostic data. Sonography requires specialized education and skills to view, analyze and modify the scan to optimize the information in the image.\n\nIn the United States the most widely accepted sonographic education is provided by CAAHEP/JRC-DMS accredited programs. The profession is sub-divided in specialties such as cardiac, obstetrical, vascular, and general sonographers. General sonographers are registered in abdominal and/or obstetric and gynecologic sonography.\n\nCertifications in sonography after examinations administered by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography are recognized and administered in some countries outside the US.\n\n\n\nSo I think A sonographer is a doctor as long as he participates in the diagnoses.

Doctors are trained and conditioned to ignore everything that does not align with the AMA agenda. No doctor who wants to practice medicine and continue getting patients is going to jeopardize their meal ticket. \n\nThey often use the argument that there is no studies proving ultrasounds are not safe. However, the absence of such studies does not automatically mean they are safe.

It's exactly the same as a personal assistant, or secretary, who specializes in medical terminology.  Mainly working with audio transcription equipment like a voice recorder, they will listen to the recording and produce the document from that recording.\n\nIt requires essential specialized training, as a lot of medical terms are really unbelievably difficult to spell, and 100% accuracy is required.
