Abstract:Background
The anal sphincteric complex is formed by internal and external sphincters making two partially overlapping tubes around the anal canal. Anal sphincteric lesions represent a spectrum of entities with different patients’ presentations and surgical managements. Endoanal ultrasound has an increasing role in detection and evaluation of anal sphincteric lesions as compared to MRI of the anal canal. The aim of this work was to compare between the 3D EAUA and external phased array MRI in de… Show more
