Endorectal ultrasound is yet another diagnostic tool that can be used in assessing and managing patients with fecal incontinence. It can detect external and internal anal sphincter defects in these patients, confirming what may be seen following an Anorectal Manometry diagnostic study. It can assess and evaluate the structure of the sphincter muscle and surrounding tissue.
There is little to no preparation for an Endorectal Ultrasound to be performed. The patient is placed in the left lateral decubitus position. A condom filled with ultrasound conductive gel is placed over the ultrasound transducer, lubricated with gel, and then gently inserted into the anal canal. The 360˚ Endorectal Ultrasound is relatively well-tolerated by most patients.
Endorectal ultrasound can then provide an image of the anal sphincter musculature and other pelvic floor structures, such as the puborectalis, along with the external and internal sphincter. Certain defects or pelvic floor injuries can be identified. The images can be stored with measurements and defects labeled, which can then transfer easily and become a part of the patients’ (electronic) medical records.
Bladder ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive medical procedure that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the bladder. During the process, a small handheld device called a transducer is placed against the skin of the lower abdomen or perineum to emit sound waves that bounce off the bladder and surrounding tissues. The reflected sound waves are then converted into images that can be viewed on a computer screen in real-time.
Bladder ultrasound imaging is used to diagnose and monitor various bladder conditions, such as bladder stones, bladder tumors, urinary tract infections, and urinary incontinence. It can also evaluate the bladder’s size, shape, and capacity.
The procedure is relatively quick and painless and requires no radiation or invasive procedures. Bladder ultrasound imaging is safe for people of all ages, including pregnant women, and can be performed in a doctor’s office or clinic.
Overall, bladder ultrasound imaging is an essential diagnostic tool for evaluating bladder health and function and is a safe and non-invasive option for patients who require bladder imaging.
Transperineal ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive medical procedure used to visualize and assess the health of the pelvic region. During the process, a small handheld device called a transducer is placed against the skin of the perineum, which is the area between the anus and the scrotum in men or between the anus and the vulva in women. The transducer emits high-frequency sound waves that bounce off the internal organs and tissues, creating images that can be viewed in real-time on a computer screen.
Transperineal ultrasound imaging is commonly used to diagnose and monitor various conditions affecting the pelvic region, including prostate cancer, bladder disorders, and pelvic floor dysfunction. It is also used during pregnancy to monitor the health and development of the fetus.
The procedure is relatively quick and painless and involves no radiation or invasive procedures. In addition, transperineal ultrasound imaging is a safe and effective alternative to traditional imaging techniques that may require contrast agents or involve radiation exposure.
Overall, transperineal ultrasound imaging is an essential tool in diagnosing and treating various conditions affecting the pelvic region and is a safe and non-invasive option for patients who require imaging of this area.
