Overview
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 simultaneously. It provides an excellent resolution of anal sphincters, levator ani muscles and soft tissue surrounding the rectum without radiation exposure.
The strengths, weaknesses, and cost comparisons between anorectal manometry, balloon expulsion test, defecography, and MR defecography for establishing a diagnosis of dyssynergic defecation are shown in Table 1
