What to expect when you arrive to the clinic

You will be provided with a pair of scrubs to change into for your test.
A nurse will start an IV in your hand or arm (or port).
You will be given fluids, a contrast tracer, and possibly medications through the IV.
You will have a waiting period of approximately sixty (60) minutes while the contrast tracer circulates in your body. You will rest in a private room during this time. Family will be asked to wait in waiting room during this time.
After the waiting period, the scan will occur and will last approximately twenty to twenty-five minutes.
