Preparing For Diagnostic Ultrasound Kendall

Doctors usually order Diagnostic Ultrasound Kendall together with blood tests. Make sure you ask the doctor if there are any special instructions before the sonogram. A sonogram usually doesn’t take longer than 30 minutes. In most cases, it’s important to arrive about 15 minutes before the test for the intake process.

In an emergency setting, sonography will typically be performed right away. For a test on a future date, find out if you should, or should not, eat or drink anything before the test. For example, doctors will often ask you to fast (not eat or drink) for six hours before an abdominal ultrasound to look at the gallbladder, but tell you to drink several glasses of water and not urinate before a sonogram of the bladder.
