Biposy Preparation

All patients are asked to arrive 10 minutes before their scheduled appointment time to complete the required paperwork.

All patients must bring  -

• The request form from their doctor
• Medicare or DVA card, and any government issued pension or health care cards
• All previous x-rays or scans of the area being examined

When booking your biopsy appointment please inform us if you are taking any blood-thinning medication (i.e. Aspirin, Warfarin, Clopidogrel, etc). You may need to have a blood-clotting test before the procedure and have your medication adjusted by your doctor. 

Preps vary depending on the area to be examined. We usually require previous imaging to be presented for our specialist radiologists to review prior to your appointment.

Please call Orana Radiology for further information.
