Abdominal x-ray is performed to get images of the abdominal organs including stomach, liver, intestines and spleen. The same abdominal x-ray is called KUB x-ray when it is performed to provide pictures of the kidneys, ureters and bladder.
Abdomen x-ray is performed to:
Determine the reason for abdomen pain.
Check for any unexplained nausea or vomiting.
Evaluate for any indigestion or blockage.
Evaluate gallstones or kidney stone.
Assess any holes in the abdomen area.
Women should tell their doctors if there is any chance they may be pregnant because an abdominal x-ray is not performed on a pregnant woman as the radiation can harm the baby. If in doubt, make sure to take a pregnancy test before performing the scan. If positive, it is not advised.
Wear comfortable clothing and avoid jewellery or any other metal on the body.
Please do let us know if you’ve consumed antacids or had a barium sulfate contrast X-ray in the last few days before the scan as it can interfere with the process.
It is recommended to empty your bladder before the test.
You will be asked to lie on a padded table, with the X-ray generator positioned above the abdominal area.
It’s important that you stay very still. You may be asked to hold your breath for a few seconds during the time in which the image is obtained.
X-ray will be taken from various positions so you may also be asked to stand while taking an abdominal x-ray.
You can eat immediately after the test and remain fully dressed as long as your clothes have no metal buttons or zippers.

We may have to reschedule or cancel appointments at times because of reasons beyond our control – short-supply or no supply of the isotope used for the scan from an external source, machine breakdowns, etc.
As we have no control over this situation, Medcare Diagnostics would not be held liable for any harm or loss arising out of such cancellations.
