It's a relatively : Common procedure so try not to be nervous. Voiding cystourethrogram is a technique for watching a person's urethra and urinary bladder while the person urinates. The technique consists of catheterizing the patient in order to fill the bladder with contrast. Under fluoroscopy (real time x-rays) the radiologist watches the contrast enter the bladder.
