Your doctor may tell you to fast for 8 to 12 hours before your ultrasound, especially if it is your abdominal USG. Undigested food can make it difficult for a technician to get a clear picture as it may block sound waves.
For an examination of the gallbladder, liver, pancreas, or spleen, you may be told to eat a fat-free meal the evening before your test, you may then also be asked to fast until the procedure. You can continue to drink water and take any medications as instructed by your doctor or the lab technician.

No preparation is required for a routine x-ray examination. If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant, be sure to inform your physician, and the technologist prior to the start of the x-ray examination. Most examinations using x-ray will not be performed on pregnant women unless the benefits of the examination outweigh the risks of radiation exposure to the fetus. Extremity examinations can safely be performed with appropriate lead shielding.
After changing into an examination gown, if necessary the radiologic technologist (RT) will instruct you to remove specific articles of your clothing that may interfere with the radiograph to ensure that the radiograph is free of artifacts (e.g. material from your clothing, snaps, buttons, clips, etc…). You will be taken into an e-ray room and instructed to lie, sit or be positioned on x-ray table. Just as a photographer has special equipment in the portrait studio to achieve the best portrait, the radiologic technologist (RT) uses special equipment such as an x-ray source (camera), positioning blocks and sponges to achieve an optimal image.
Your examination will be interpreted by a radiologist. A radiologist is a physician specializing in radiology, including MRI, ultrasound, nuclear medicine and CT in addition to X-rays. Radiologists specialize in the imaging and diagnosis of disease. Interpretation of a radiograph, MRI, CT, ultrasound, or nuclear medicine examination requires expertise in pattern recognition and in the identification of artifacts or findings that could be mistaken for pathology. Radiologists are trained in the variable sensitivity and specificity of each imaging technique, and in the potential for hazards related to the examination that could cause harm and must be avoided.
There is always a slight risk of damage to cells or tissue from being exposed to any radiation, including the low levels of radiation used for this test. But the risk of damage from the x-rays is usually very low compared with the potential benefits of the test. Our centers and radiologists constantly monitor dosages and protocols to minimize radiation exposure.
