An intravenous pyelogram (IVP) typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes to complete. The procedure involves several steps, including injecting a contrast dye and taking a series of X-rays to visualize the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. Preparation time and post-procedure observation may add to the overall time spent at the facility. However, the actual imaging portion is relatively quick.

Pigtail stent in a retrograde pyelogram?

He told me that he will use the strings to pull them out in his office on follow-up visit. And I think that is same as pigtail stents. Please confirm this with your doctor.
