Pelvic floor dysfunction: Anatomical characterization and functional imaging with MRI defecography.

European Journal of Radiology
Pelvic floor dysfunction encompasses a spectrum of disorders characterized by organ descent, muscular weakness, and impaired coordination across the anterior, middle, and posterior compartments.

Functional analysis of anorectal junction: Defecography

RöFo - Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Röntgenstrahlen und der bildgebenden Verfahren, 1988
The 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,

Scintigraphic defecography

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,

Supine magnetic resonance defecography for evaluation of anterior compartment prolapse: Comparison with upright voiding cystourethrogram.

European Journal of Radiology, 2019
PURPOSE To compare utility of supine Magnetic Resonance Defecography (MRD) with upright Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) for evaluation of cystocele and urethral hypermobility (UHM). METHODS This was an IRB-approved, HIPAA-compliant, retrospective study

Radiation dose in defecography.

Radiology, 1990
The effective dose equivalent, as an expression of total patient risk for exposure to limited areas of the body, and gonadal doses associated with hereditary effects were estimated in 67 consecutive subjects (43 women and 24 men) who underwent defecography.

Dynamic Anal Endosonography and MRI Defecography in Diagnosis of Pelvic Floor Disorders: Comparison With Conventional Defecography

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 ...

Defecography: A Swedish Perspective

2006
We 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.

MR Defecography in Assessing Functional Defecation Disorder: Diagnostic Value of the Defecation Phase in Detection of Dyssynergic Defecation and Pelvic Floor Prolapse in Females

Digestion, 2019
Objective: Dyssynergic defecation (DD) and pelvic floor prolapse often coexist in female functional defecation disorder. A retrospective study was performed to evaluate the ability of dynamic MR sequences with the straining and defecation phase to detect
