When you go in for your hysterosalpingogram (HSG) exam, this is what the room may look like. They will have you lay on a table that looks very much like this one. Most doctors will order you to go to a imaging center as they will not have this type of x-ray in their office.

If you were to see your insides, this is what it would look like when they are inserting the catheter tube into your uterus. This allows them to insert the iodine solution that they will be pushing through your uterus and fallopian tubes.

If the tubes are blocked it is called a hydrosfinx and would look like this:
I thought this was a good comparison:
