Digital Micturating Cysto Urethrogram ( M.C. U ) Price in Bangladesh

What is Digital Micturating Cysto Urethrogram ( M.C. U )?

A Digital Micturating Cysto-Urethrogram (MCU) is a radiological procedure used to evaluate the urinary bladder, urethra, and associated structures. It involves the use of X-rays and a contrast medium, usually injected into the bladder via a catheter.

The patient is asked to urinate during the procedure to assess the bladder’s function and detect abnormalities like reflux, strictures, or blockages. Preparation may involve fasting and bladder emptying.

Risks include discomfort, infection, or allergic reactions to the contrast. Results help diagnose urinary tract conditions, including vesicoureteral reflux, bladder dysfunction, or urethral abnormalities.

What to expect & how to prepare

Digital Micturating Cysto Urethrogram ( M.C. U ) is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Digital Micturating Cysto Urethrogram ( M.C. U ) result rather than self-diagnosing.
