Overview
Dynamic pelvic MRI can evaluate pelvic floor anatomy, dynamic motion and rectal evacuation.
MRI
If rectal prolapse is suspected but cannot be detected during physical examination MRI defecography may be helpful for diagnosis.[1]
Magnetic resonance defecography or dynamic pelvic MRI can evaluate pelvic floor anatomy, dynamic motion and rectal evacuation. It provides an excellent resolution of anal sphincters, levator ani muscles and soft tissue surrounding the rectum.[2]
