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.
Some centers ask for a small enema shortly before the scan, since rectal gas and stool can blur the images; guidelines on eating vary by center.
Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker, hip replacement or other implanted device, metal fragments, kidney disease, a latex allergy (some scans use a latex-covered rectal coil), a rectal condition, or claustrophobia.
Afterwards: If you take a sedative for claustrophobia or anxiety, you'll need someone to take you home; arrange this before the scan.
