rate and BP will be recorded. Ultrasound images of the heart are obtained prior to and after
exercising on a treadmill. In order to assure good contact throughout the test, your skin may be
roughened/shaved where the EKG leads are attached.
CT SCAN WITH IV CONTRAST
(Oral and IV for abdomen, abdomen & pelvis, or pelvis only)
A C/T scanner is a special x-ray machine designed to provide a detailed picture of a part of your
body. This C/T scan uses oral or IV contrast medium. The test takes about one hour. You will
changed into a hospital gown. You will be given an IV contrast material, another final dose of
contrast and rectal contrast (only for those with an order for a pelvis CT). As you lie comfortably
on the table, the x-ray technologist will start an IV to inject the contrast medium into your
bloodstream. After the contrast material begins infusing, the table will move you slowly through
the donut shaped scanner.
MAMMOGRAM
This special x-ray closely examines the breast tissue for any abnormalities. A mammogram takes
30 minutes to one hour. You will be asked to remove all clothing above the waist and put on a
hospital gown.
PULMONARY FUNCTION STUDY
This series of breathing tests measures lung volumes and air flows and will help your doctor
determine how well your lungs are functioning. You will breathe through a tube connected to a
machine that measures the amount of air going in and out of your lungs. Breathe holding and
vigorous breathing will be required at all times. An inhaled medication will be given during the
test to measure the response of your lungs to medication.
ULTRASOUND ADULT KIDNEY
This study uses sound waves to provide a detailed picture of the kidneys. No needles, dyes or
medication are used. A special gel will be applied to your skin. As you lie on the table, an
ultrasound transducer moved over abdomen will generate pictures of your kidneys. There are no
side effects.
NUCLEAR CARDIAC STRESS & REST SCAN WITH DRUG INDUCTION
A stress and rest scan with drug induced exercise uses a radioactive substance (a tracer) to produce
images of the heart muscle. When combined with an exercise test, the stress cardiac scan helps
determine if areas of the heart do not receive enough blood. The stress and rest scan drug induced
is specifically useful in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease the presence of
blockages in the coronary arteries. After the first scan, approximately 10 adhesives electrodes will
be attached to the chest wall. When the doctor arrives, a drug will be given through the IV line to
chemically stress the heart. During the test, the Nuclear Medicine technologist will inject a second
radioactive material into the IV line.
