Paediatric Micturating Cystourethrogram (MCUG)

Information for parents and carers

Introduction

This leaflet will explain how a micturating cystourethrogram (MCUG) is performed on babies and infants. It will answer some of the most commonly asked questions and should give you an overview of the procedure. It is not meant to replace informed discussion between you and your doctor, but it can act as a starting point for such discussion.
