An X-Ray RGU or Retrograde Urethrogram is a special contrast X-ray used to visualize the urethra — the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.
This test is typically performed in men to detect:
• Urethral strictures (narrowing of the urethra)
• Urethral trauma or injury (often after pelvic fractures)
• Fistulas or abnormal passages
• Congenital abnormalities
• Post-surgical complications
The procedure involves injecting contrast dye into the urethra and taking X-ray images to track how the dye flows through the urethral passage.
Test Preparation
• Fasting is usually not required.
• Empty your bladder before the procedure, if advised.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing — you may be asked to change into a gown.
• Inform the radiology staff if:
o You are allergic to iodine or contrast dye
o You have a history of urinary tract infections or surgeries
o You are experiencing pain, bleeding, or discharge
