Test Preparation
Minimal preparation is needed, but keep the following in mind:
• Clothing: Wear loose-fitting clothes. You may be asked to wear a hospital gown to prevent interference from zippers, buttons, or other materials.
• Remove metal items: Take off any belts, jewelry, or metallic items near the waist or hip area.
• Pregnancy: If you are pregnant or might be, let the technician know beforehand. A lead shield may be used to protect your abdomen.
• No fasting needed: You may eat, drink, and take medications as usual before the exam.
