What is Digital X-Ray of Retrograde Urethrogram with Antegrade cystogram?

A Digital X-ray of Retrograde Urethrogram (RGU) with Antegrade Cystogram is a combined imaging procedure used to evaluate the urethra and bladder. The retrograde urethrogram involves injecting contrast dye into the urethra via a catheter to detect injuries, strictures, or blockages, while the antegrade cystogram involves the injection of dye into the bladder through a catheter placed in the kidneys or ureters to examine bladder function and detect issues like reflux or abnormal filling.

This dual procedure is typically performed when there are concerns about both the urethra and bladder. Risks include discomfort, infection, or allergic reactions to the contrast dye.

Results are interpreted based on the distribution of the dye in both the urethra and bladder.

What to expect & how to prepare

Digital X-Ray of Retrograde Urethrogram with Antegrade cystogram 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 X-Ray of Retrograde Urethrogram with Antegrade cystogram result rather than self-diagnosing.
