About this hospitalWhat the center says
From the center's own pages, in English. Each statement links to its source.
If a patient cancels a scheduled colonoscopy after already receiving the bowel-prep kit, they must still pay for the laxatives and meal replacements that were sent.
The center charges a NT$12,000 fee to cover the radiotracer cost if a PET/CT scan is canceled on the day of the exam.
For painless (sedated) gastroscopy and colonoscopy, appointments must be made at least 3 weeks in advance.
General anesthesia for sedated endoscopy is not given to patients who have had a heart attack in the past 6 months, unstable angina, severe arrhythmia, or are older than 75.
Before a contrast-enhanced CT scan, patients with a history of contrast or drug allergies, thyroid disease, impaired kidney function, asthma, diabetes (especially those taking metformin), or possible pregnancy should report this in advance.
Barium swallow (upper GI series) is not given to pregnant patients, those with bowel obstruction, or those who have had a gastrointestinal biopsy within the past 24 hours.
The center has a critical-value notification system: if a result is seriously abnormal, a nurse proactively contacts the patient and helps arrange a follow-up outpatient visit.

Radiation from this package's imaging
About 2.5 mSv from the tests we could identify, a typical adult dose for these exams: roughly 10 months of natural background radiation (about 3 mSv a year, US average).
This package also lists 17 items we have not matched to a test; if any of them is an X-ray, CT or PET scan, the total is higher.
- Abdominal X-ray (KUB) · about 0.7 mSv
- Bone density (DXA) · about less than 0.01 mSv
- Chest X-ray · about 0.1 mSv
- Coronary artery calcium score · about 1.7 mSv
Typical doses from published references (RadiologyInfo.org ↗, Mettler et al. 2008 ↗); the actual dose depends on the scanner and protocol. Ask the center for its own figure.

General preparation notes for 10 tests in this package
This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.
Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator: the test passes a weak electric current through the body and has traditionally not been recommended with these devices.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested, so the test is often done in the morning.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.
Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.
Usually needs a clean-catch (midstream) sample; some tests instead ask you to collect all urine passed over 24 hours.
Mention when booking: Ask which specific urine test your provider ordered, since collection instructions vary by test.
Usually needs no fasting; you remove jewelry, metal objects and sometimes clothing above the waist for a hospital gown.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs about 6 hours without food beforehand; clear fluids other than milk or fizzy drinks are commonly still allowed. Loose, comfortable clothing is easiest.
Mention when booking: Mention if you have type 1 diabetes, so the center can offer an early appointment time.
For a transabdominal scan, drinking water beforehand to fill the bladder is common; for a transvaginal scan, an empty bladder is usual instead.
Mention when booking: Tell the center which type of scan you expect, and mention if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs about 4 hours without food, caffeine or smoking beforehand; no contrast injection is used for this scan.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if pregnancy is possible.
Afterwards: No recovery time is needed; normal activities can usually resume right away.
Usually asks that you skip calcium supplements for 24 hours beforehand. Avoid clothing with metal zippers or buttons, and remove jewelry.
Mention when booking: Mention any recent barium exam or CT/nuclear-medicine contrast, and whether pregnancy is possible.
