| Scanner Used | Siemens Somatom Plus-4 |
| Injection Rate | 2cc/sec |
| Contrast Volume and Type | 100ml of Omnipaque-350 |
| Area Scanned | From mid-symphysis pubis to diaphragm (caudocranially) |
| Scan Delay | 50sec |
| Length of Spiral (time) | 40sec |
| Slice Thickness | 3-5mm |
| Table Speed/Pitch | 5-8mm/sec or a pitch of 1.6 |
| Reconstruction Interval | 3-5mm |

| Comment: For better definition of the bladder air can be placed in the bladder via a Foley catheter. Another technique would be to infuse dilute contrast into the bladder similar to doing a CT cystogram. |
