What Do I Need To Do To Prepare?
Wear comfortable clothing to your appointment. You may be required
to change into a hospital gown for your examination or just move
a portion of your clothing so that the technologist can access
the area to be examined. Most procedures take 30 minutes to complete.
Limited studies may be done for certain conditions for patients
who do not follow the preparation guidelines. On occasion the examination
may have to be delayed or rescheduled.
Procedure Name
Pelvic/Obstetrical Ultrasound
Preparation
- Drink at least four 8-ounce glasses of water one hour prior
to the examination time. Do not void until the exam is completed.
- Obstetric patients must not smoke for at least 2 hours prior
to the procedure.
