A greater awareness of the therapies now available for pelvic floor dysfunction has increased demand for specialized imaging of this region. Some of the techniques required are available at relatively few centers, and the purpose of this review is to introduce the emerging subspecialty of pelvic floor imaging to a more general readership.

Female pelvic floor dysfunction encompasses a number of prevalent clinical conditions, including female pelvic organ prolapse, urinary and fecal incontinence, obstructed defecation, and sexual dysfunction. In most cases, neither etiology nor pathophysiology are well understood.

The pelvic floor conditions form a diverse array of primarily functional conditions that are rarely life-threatening but may be severely debilitating. Reassurance combined with initial medical and dietary management of most of these conditions greatly ameliorates the suffering of most patients.

Pelvic floor physiology is poorly understood. The funnel shape of the pelvic floor and anal canal is uniquely developed to provide discriminatory continence of gas, liquid, and solid. Proximally, the pelvic floor consists of the pubococcygeus and iliococcygeus muscles.

The pelvic floor is a complex anatomic and functional unit. Over the past few years MR imaging has gained increasing acceptance as imaging modality for evaluation of the pelvic floor. Using static T2-weighted sequences, the morphology of the pelvic floor can be visualized in great detail. A multicoil array and a rapid half-Fourier T2-weighted, balanced

, 2013 Pelvic floor architectural defects are related to parity, aging, hysterectomy, and chronic straining. The muscles and the supportive connective tissue can be torn, stretched, or denervated. Basic understanding of pelvic floor anatomy is essential to understanding 2D, 3D, and 4D anatomy as visualized by pelvic floor ultrasonography.

Pelvic floor ultrasound: a review [PDF]
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2010 Female pelvic floor dysfunction encompasses a number of prevalent conditions and includes pelvic organ prolapse, urinary and fecal incontinence, obstructed defecation, and sexual dysfunction. In most cases neither etiology nor pathophysiology are well understood. Imaging has great potential to enhance both research and clinical management capabilities,

The anatomy of the pelvic floor
Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1994The pelvic organs are suspended by the pelvic ligaments and supported by the levator ani muscles. Breaks in the connective tissue, and neuromuscular damage affecting the pelvic floor muscles cause pelvic organ prolapse. Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound have begun to define the dynamics of the pelvic floor and document the specific tissue ...

Summary The pelvic floor forms the inferior boundary of the abdomino-pelvic cavity. The co-ordinated action of the muscles which surround this cavity generates intra-abdominal pressure, with the pelvic floor muscles acting before the pressure rise to maintain organ support and urinary and faecal continence.
