Sonography or Podiatry

I have a bachelors in anatomy from Bristol university, and I was thinking about doing a MSc in pre registration radiography to eventually become a sonography. However, I have been looking into podiatry and I am debating on doing it instead.
I’d be grateful if someone who has experience in either one could let me know which would be the better career to go into?

It would be best to gain some shadowing experience of both roles at your local hospital (unis will want to see shadowing on your application too). Just a day is fine as hospitals tend to turn down requests for longer periods of work experience.

Also, have a read through the following thread:

With a degrree in a hard science from a top university, you will find the podiatry degree very simple. That could be either good or bad. Radiography will have more job opportunities.
