OT'ers who had an IVP test on kidneys

for kidney function. Why in the hell do the prep instructions have me to take a laxative the night before like a colonoscopy? I had kidney stones a few weeks back and the doc set me up for this test to assess if I have any damage or other effects.
I had something like this when they found the stones - CT scan with contrast and it was done on the spot.
I could not figure out the laxative requirement. Me and stimulent laxatives do not get along...

Are you doing this because of shortage of CT contrast? I forget if IVP contrast is the same and didn't know they still did IVP.

IVP is an intravenous pyelogram. IV dye gets filtered into the collecting system of the kidneys and ureters. X-rays are taken to follow to contrast to looks for obstruction, stones, etc. The test is worthless if you are full of poop. A Noncontrast CT is by far superior to IVP if they are looking for stones but there may be other things they are looking for

^^this. CT urogram is another more expensive option than an IVP.
