This test analyzes various organs like the stomach, liver, intestines, kidneys, etc. Different abnormalities like kidney stones, gallstones, perforations (holes) of the intestine or stomach, etc., can be diagnosed using X-ray scans.

Women are advised to tell their doctor if they may be pregnant since X-rays are generally not recommended for pregnant women. Sometimes, the patient would be asked to wear a hospital gown and empty their bladder before the abdomen X-ray test.
