Maryland figures below are occupation-wide state estimates, not cardiac-only wages and not a hospital scale. Confirm a number on bls.gov before you use it in a negotiation.

Echo Diagnostic medical sonographers | $95,120 | $96,590 | $69,180 – $114,130 | 1,800 |

Cardiac CT Radiologic technologists and technicians | $79,630 | $80,110 | $63,920 – $104,110 | 3,560 |
Cardiac MR Magnetic resonance imaging technologists | $102,760 | $95,480 | $85,140 – $123,630 | 750 |
A later version of /pay/maryland can add a self-report band once enough private notes exist for Maryland. Until then, CardioPay does not invent a local cardiac rate. If a recruiter names a hospital salary, that number is theirs to document. It is not on this page.
