My original response stands to Amy's question. It's a similar table, similar looking machines, etc. The physics behind the two scans are very different, for sure. My scan today was from top of head to just above knees. 1 Ativan chilled my ass out, 2 quarts of barium phosphate solution w/pina colada twist. Injection of some isotope via IV. About 45 minute nap in the dark. Scan took about 35 minutes. Piece of cake! I get results tomorrow morning. Minnie I think I felt your chants when the Ativan kicked in!
