What is Voiding cystourethrogram?
A voiding cystourethrogram is an x-ray image of the bladder and urethra during urination. The urethra carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body.
Usually, the urinary bladder does not show up well on x-rays. In this examination, a special contrast dye fills the bladder, to allow for better x-ray images.
X-ray images are taken in various positions with the bladder full of contrast dye. Images are then taken while the bladder is being emptied.
