The day before the exam:

On the day before the exam, purchase a Fleet Prep Kit #2 at any drug store and follow the 24 hour instructions included in the kit.

Important: You must start the preparations the day before the exam.

During the exam:

A tube is inserted into the rectum and a liquid is introduced into the colon. You will be asked to move into different positions so that the liquid can fill different parts of your bowel. At times you will be asked to hold still so that x-ray pictures can be taken.

Your doctor will receive the results.
