Dear Patient:

We ask that you please arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment so that you may REGISTER directly in the RADIOLOGY DEPARTMENT. When you enter the front entrance of the hospital, this will be the first door on your left.

You will need to start preparing for this test 3 hours before your scheduled appointment time. You may pick up the preparation drink and the instructions for preparing in the Radiology Department. Please do so at least 1 day prior to your appointment. Do not eat or drink anything after starting this prep. CONTINUE MEDICATIONS WITH SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER.

If you are diabetic and take a drug called GLUCOPHAGE, please consult your doctor as this test MAY NOT BE DONE if you are taking it. Please feel free to call us at 298-2277 should you have any questions regarding this examination.

We require your prescription for this test to ensure we tailor the exam to answer your medical problems. If you physician has not given one to you, you may ask them to fax it to us at 298-2256.

Thank you.
