Description
Test Preparation
No special preparation is generally needed, but here’s what to keep in mind:
- Clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothes. You may need to change into a gown to fully expose the left thigh.
- Remove Metal Items: Take off all metallic objects from the waist down—like belts, jewelry, coins, or clothing with zippers or buttons near the thigh.
- Inform the Radiographer:
o If you’re pregnant or think you might be
o If you’ve had recent surgery, metal implants, or severe pain that limits movement
