AIM: To assess agreement between different forms of T2 weighted imaging (T2WI), and post-
contrast T1WI in the depiction of fistula tracts, inflammation, and internal openings with that …

Background To correlate the operative findings of patients with fistula‐in‐ano with
preoperative MRI and quantify the information added with MRI. Methods All consecutive …

Patients with clinically suspected anorectal sepsis were studied using MRI in order to
determine if T2 weighted sequences with fat suppression conveyed any additional benefit …

Accurate preoperative assessment of fistula-in-ano is mandatory if the fistula is not to recur.
In recent years, MRI has become pre-eminent for fistula assessment and recent studies have …

Fistula-in-ano, or perianal fistula, is a challenging clinical condition for both diagnosis and
treatment. Imaging modalities such as fistulography, anal endosonography, perineal …

This study aimed to determine the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing
and describing the characteristics of fistula-in-ano, and the agreement between MRI and …

This article explains the pathogenesis of fistula-in-ano and details the different
classifications of fistula encountered, describe their features on MR imaging, and explains …

The primary importance of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in evaluating anal fistulas lies
in its ability to demonstrate hidden areas of sepsis and secondary extensions in patients with …

Perianal fistula, which is defined as an abnormal connection between the anal canal and the
skin of the perineum, is an uncommon process but causes significant morbidity and …

Aim Several studies have evaluated the efficacy of preoperative MRI in fistula‐in‐ano.
However, the evaluation of MRI after fistula‐in‐ano surgery has never been done. The aim …
