Enclosed by four of the five Great Lakes, Michigan is also the only state to contain two peninsulas. Michigan was named after the French version of an Ojibwa word that means “large lake.” Its economy has grown to be quite diverse, but it is primarily renowned for being the center of the American automotive industry.

As of 2013, there were 2,290 diagnostic medical sonographers employed in Michigan.

The median annual salary for technicians in Michigan is slightly below the national average at $58,300.
