Cardiovascular Technologists and Technicians Pay Across the Range
May 2024 national BLS data. Figures are national medians and percentiles from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics OEWS (May 2024); your local market, employer and experience will differ. Wage data ages — this reflects the May 2024 release, verified June 2026. Informational only, not career, salary-negotiation or financial advice.
Pay for Cardiovascular Technologists and Technicians spreads across a wide band. As of the May 2024 BLS data, the lowest-paid tenth of the field earn around $37,890 a year, the middle (median) sits at $67,260, and the highest-paid tenth reach about $108,900.

Treat this as a wage DISTRIBUTION, not a years-of-experience ladder: BLS reports where pay falls across everyone in the occupation, and the lower end tends to reflect newer or lower-paying roles and regions while the upper end reflects more senior or higher-paying ones — but it is a proxy, not a literal step-by-experience table.

A distribution, not a ladder. BLS OES reports the wage distribution, not pay by years of experience. The percentile band is a proxy for experience and seniority, not a literal years-of-experience table.
