An intravenous pyelogram is a type of x-ray examination specifically designed to study the kidneys, bladder, and ureters (the tubes which carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder). After iodine-based contrast dye is injected intravenously (into a vein), a series of images are taken at timed intervals. The kidneys are responsible for removing contrast dye from the blood and collecting it in urine. Abnormalities in the appearance of the kidneys or ureters, distribution of contrast within a kidney, asymmetry in the amount of contrast in each kidney, or defects in the collecting systems can be identified and are suggestive of particular diseases and conditions.

Intravenous urography is a radiographic study of the urinary system using an intravenous contrast agent (dye). Of the many ways to obtain images of the urinary system, the intravenous injection of a contrast agent has been traditionally considered the best, although other modalities, such as computed tomography (CT) or ultrasound, are better for some disease processes.

Renal arteriography is a test to examine the blood vessels of the kidneys, using contrast material and x-rays. See also renal venogram . These arteries are difficult to fully examine on an ordinary x-ray , so a contrast material is injected into one or more arteries so they may be seen and evaluated.
