Test Preparation
Before the Test:
• No special diet or medication adjustments are typically needed.
• Inform the technician if you are pregnant or suspect pregnancy.
• Empty your bladder and bowels beforehand if possible — bowel contents can interfere with image clarity.
• Remove all metal objects around your lower back, hips, or pelvic area:
o Belts
o Buttons or zippers
o Jewelry or piercings
Clothing:
• You may be asked to wear a hospital gown.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing that’s easy to change out of.
