Test Preparation
To ensure accurate results, follow these preparation guideline:
• Fasting: Usually not required for a non-contrast (plain) scan.
• Clothing & Accessories: Wear loose, comfortable clothing and avoid metal objects (zippers, buttons, jewelry, piercings) as they may interfere with the scan.
• Medical History: Inform the doctor if you are pregnant, have any medical conditions, or take any medications.
• Breathing Instructions: You may be asked to hold your breath for a few seconds to obtain clearer images.
• Bladder Preparation: In some cases, you may be asked to drink water before the scan to ensure the bladder is adequately filled for better imaging of lower abdominal structures.
