Before this test

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.

Usually needs little preparation; you may be asked to drink water beforehand to fill the bladder for a clearer view.

Mention when booking: Mention if holding a full bladder is uncomfortable for you; the technologist can adjust timing.
