Sheri Tilton, BGS, RT (R), RDMS, RVT

My initial training in medical imaging started when becoming a registered technologist in radiography. After becoming an RT (R), I immediately pursued a career as a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer. I received my medical imaging certificates from Aultman Hospital’s School of Radiologic Technology and School of Diagnostic Medical Sonography. I still currently am  a registered radiographer. 

I am registered as a general Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS) with specialties in Abdomen, OB/Gyn and Breast. I am also a Registered Vascular Technologist (RVT). After working as a full time staff sonographer for 14 years, Kent State offered me the opportunity to begin teaching full time in 2003. I still hold a PRN position at Aultman Hospital in Canton, Ohio. I graduated from Kent State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in General Studies in 2011. 

I currently teach the clinical classes in the Diagnostic Medical Sonography Program along with Patient Management in DMS.  As clinical coordinator, I am responsible for scheduling campus labs and clinical placement for the students.
