How you prepare
You can take the following steps to prepare for your appointment:
- Call the day before the exam to confirm the time and location of the exam.
- Wear a comfortable shirt with no collar or an open collar.
- Don't wear a necklace or dangling earrings.
Unless your doctor or the radiology lab provides special instructions, you shouldn't need to make any other preparations.
