This is a similar preparation to having a screening mammogram -http://talkabouthealth.com/what-can-a-patient-do-to-prepare-for-their-screening-mammogram.
Also be prepared to answer questions about your symptoms: how long you’ve had the symptom; if you noticed it, or your doctor or both; and see if you can point directly to it so it can be marked for the pictures.
