Radio de l'abdomen à blanc radiography of (the) abdomen without preparation

Explanation:

A quoi sert une radiographie de l’abdomen sans préparation - abdomen à blanc - ?

La radiographie de l'abdomen sans préparation ou ASP permet de visualiser par transparence l'aspect de tous les organes de l'abdomen (intestin, estomac, reins) et de leur contenu. Il est pratiqué dans le cadre d’un bilan en cas de douleurs abdominales ou de troubles du transit (constipation ou diarrhée).

Il peut aussi être répété pour surveiller l'évolution après une intervention chirurgicale de l'abdomen.

Radio de labdomen abdominal image without contrast

Explanation:
"à blanc" refers to "without contrast." Prior to some x-rays patients may be given a contrast media to drink like barium, or be injected with a dye that allows better visualization of organs, passage ways, or vessels this is refered to as patient prep.
