About imaging and radiology tests

Who these tests are commonly ordered for

Doctors commonly order imaging to look at bones, organs and soft tissue, for example an ultrasound for abdominal or pelvic symptoms or a DEXA scan to measure bone density. A doctor can advise which scan is appropriate.

Preparation

Preparation depends on the scan, so ask the imaging centre how to prepare.
