Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Jeana, I did it twice so far. They gave me an IV contrast, and have to come back after 2 hour. Just lay down on a table, and the scan goes from head to toes. It took 20 minutes in my case. love, LucillaJeana wrote: On July 22 I am going to have a dexa scan. Has anyone ever had one of these.
