Before having some types of ultrasound scan, you may be asked to follow certain instructions before the procedure, such as

  • Drink water and not go to the toilet until after the test – this is to fill your bladder and may be needed before a scan of your unborn baby or your pelvic area
  • Avoid eating for several hours before the scan – this may be needed before a scan of your abdomen to lower the amount of air and gas in your stomach or bowel and enable your gallbladder to be better assessed

Depending on the area of your body being examined, the hospital may also ask you to remove some clothing and wear a hospital gown.
