Defecography: II. Contribution to the diagnosis of defecation disorders
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1984Our simple method of defecography has proved to be more sensitive than clinical evaluation in the detection and description of defecation disorders. Among the different types of disorders, described on the basis of 144 abnormal defecograms, the most common are rectal intussusception (RI), intraanal rectal intussusception (IRI), external manually (EMRP)

Defecography in Anorectal Functional Disorders
1996The proper treatment of functional disorders of rectal evacuation requires that the diagnosis is as accurate as possible. To supplement anamnesis and clinical examination, techniques such as anorectal manometry and electromyography have been developed. Radiology makes its contribution through defecography.

Anorectal Manometry and Defecography in the Diagnosis of Fecal Incontinence
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1991We carried out anorectal manometry and defecography prospectively in 43 consecutive patients with fecal incontinence. A subgroup of 17 patients with severe incontinence was identified radiologically by a short and incompletely closed anal canal. In these patients, the anal resting pressure was significantly lower than in the rest of the group (34.9 +/-

Interobserver agreement in defecography--an international study.
Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 1998Defecography is considered to be an essential investigation in the evaluation of functional anorectal disorders, but the agreement between observers from different clinical centers has never been evaluated.14 defecographic studies were selected aimed to cover the most relevant defecographic findings responsible for disordered defecation.

Anorectal Testing: Defecography and Anorectal Manometry
2007There are many tests of anorectal function and a recent review identifies the capabilities of these various tests and techniques, and provides some direction for their use in patients with the common conditions of fecal incontinence, constipation and anorectal pain [1].

Defecography and Related Radiologic Imaging Techniques
2003The patient with pelvic floor and anorectal dysfunction may present with a variety of symptoms such as urinary or defecatory dysfunction, urogenital or anorectal prolapse, pelvic or abdominal pain, and dyspareunia (1–5). Occasionally, rectal bleeding may eventually be found to be due to rectal prolapse.

Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Defecography
2009Defecography by magnetic resonance imaging is an accurate method for evaluating morphology and function of the anorectal and pelvic muscles and organs. The dynamics of the pelvic floor may be evaluated in multiple compartments in high-resolution images and video mode, and the diseases affecting the evacuation mechanism may be identified.
