Step by step
How to prepare for the examination?
- 01A few days before the examination
Follow a light diet and limit foods with seeds and grains as well as raw vegetables and fruit. The referring doctor provides detailed dietary recommendations.
- 02Bowel cleansing
The comfort and effectiveness of the examination depend on proper bowel cleansing with a laxative preparation. The doctor selects the preparation and how to take it — follow the enclosed instructions exactly.
- 03The day of the examination
Arrive at the scheduled time with your current documentation and a list of medications you take. If the examination is under anaesthesia, arrange to return home accompanied by another person.
- 04Medications and chronic conditions
Tell the doctor about medications you take (especially blood thinners) and any chronic conditions before the examination. Do not stop any medication on your own — the doctor decides.
These instructions are general and do not replace your doctor’s recommendations. The appointments team confirms the details of preparing for a specific examination.
