Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1993
Conventional assessment of anorectal function with defecating videoproctography is semiquantitative and the high radiation exposure precludes prolonged or repeated testing. The aim of this study was to develop a dynamic scintigraphic method of assessing anorectal function.Fourteen patients with fecal incontinence, 18 patients with chronic constipation,

Defecography as Part of the Evaluation of Anorectal Dysfunction
Gastroenterology Nursing, 1991Defecography is the evaluation of the anus and rectum during the act of defecation. We have devised a very simple method of performing this examination in conjunction with the Radiology Department. The entire procedure takes less than 15 minutes from start to finish. In our hospital, we have performed over 130 of these tests.

Simultaneous defecography and peritoneography in defecation disorders
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1995A number of physiologic and radiologic investigations are used in investigating defecation disorders. Defecography is one important part of these investigations. However, a correct diagnosis of an enterocele is sometimes difficult despite use of contrast media in the rectum, vagina, and small bowel.This study was undertaken to ascertain if it was ...

The reproducibility of measuring the anorectal angle in defecography
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1991Dynamic proctography is a radiographic procedure that has become widely used in the evaluation of pelvic floor function. The anorectal angle (ARA) is one parameter which is usually quantified during this examination. To determine the accuracy with which this measurement can be made, three physicians independently measured the resting and squeezing ARAs

Defecography: A Swedish Perspective
2006We recommend standard use of contrast medium in the rectum, vagina, and small bowel. However, intraperitoneal contrast medium is preferable in the diagnosis of enterocele and peritoneocele, but this method is more invasive. Bladder contrast should be used only in patients with complex pelvic floor disorders and/or previous pelvic floor surgery.

Functional analysis of anorectal junction: Defecography
RöFo - Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Röntgenstrahlen und der bildgebenden Verfahren, 1988The radiograms and videotape recordings from 32 defecographies in patients with defecation complaints were retrospectively analyzed. The patients had been examined in an upright position during stooling of a barium contrast medium. All patients had had a double contrast colon examinations which was normal. Internal procidentia was found in 20 patients,

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 2011
Pelvic floor disorders are frequent, especially in women. Surgeons need more information on the accuracy of available diagnostic techniques to make therapeutic decisions.This study aimed to compare the accuracy of dynamic anorectal endosonography and dynamic MRI defecography with conventional defecography as the criterion standard in the diagnosis of ...

Perineal sonography and fast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are currently confronting conventional x-ray studies in the diagnosis of pelvic organ prolapse including cystocele, enterocele, peritoneocele, and rectocele, with no evidence of substantial discrepancies among the three modalities.

Defecography and Anal Endosonography
1999Disorders of anorectal function can be assessed by many modalities. Imaging studies can complement physiologic studies in order to best diagnose and treat patients with defecatory disorders. Imaging studies provide anatomic delineation and if dynamic in nature can provide functional information.
