Hi,
I was put in superman position then the xray(veinogram) not MRI) was taken...the radioactive iodine was still in my system.
as for ultrasound they put me into the stick em up position but at a 90degree angle so arms parallel to flo floor and hands up in air a perfect 90 deg angle. You are sitting and they use an ultrasound wand...like when you have a baby or need your belly checked out for some reasoon.......or the same kind for an echocardiogram...if you've had one???
also was put into other positions but can't quite remember them....I just remember the fuy who did the ultasound getting another guy cause he couldn't find my pulses in that position...all compressed. You can get breaks in between...but you do have to hold the positions till the guy/girl finds the pulses or not and takes the pictures
hope that helps
love and hugs,
Victoria
