Retrograde Urethrogram Cpt. On retrograde urethrogram no stricture or leak of the urethra is noted. Urethrography refers to the radiographic study of the urethra using iodinated contrast media and is generally carried out in males.

A retrograde urethrogram (rug) is a test healthcare providers use to see if your urethra (the tube you pee through) is damaged or if there’s scar tissue blocking. In this procedure, the provider performs imaging supervision and interpretation of urethrocystography, in which fluid is instilled in a retrograde fashion.
