What is a MRI Scan Defecography Test in Pune ?

What is MRI Scan Defecography?

MRI scan defecography is an imaging test that watches the rectum and pelvic floor while you strain and pass stool. It measures how muscles, rectum, and surrounding structures move and close during bowel movements.

What does MRI Scan Defecography show?

This information is important to find mechanical or functional problems that cause constipation, obstructed emptying, rectocele, prolapse, or fecal leakage. Doctors use the results to plan treatment, decide on physical therapy or surgery, and track recovery after operations. The test shows both anatomy and movement, so it can find issues that static scans miss. It is noninvasive and gives detailed pictures without X-rays.

What symptoms suggest MRI Scan Defecography may be needed?

A doctor may recommend MRI Scan Defecography when a patient reports localised pain, swelling, or injury, a lump or restricted movement, or an abnormal finding on an earlier test that needs to be examined directly. If you have these symptoms, GetVisit offers booking and home collection across Shivajinagar, Kharadi, and other parts of Pune.

How is MRI Scan Defecography done?

This is an imaging scan, not a blood or fluid test, so no sample is collected. A qualified radiographer positions you at an accredited GetVisit-partnered imaging centre in Shivajinagar or Kharadi, Pune and captures the images in a few minutes. A radiologist reviews them and your report is made available through GetVisit.

How accurate is MRI Scan Defecography?

GetVisit partners only with accredited imaging centres in and around Shivajinagar, Kharadi, and Pune that use maintained, calibrated equipment and qualified radiographers. Every scan is interpreted by a qualified radiologist, and reports are accepted by hospital networks, specialists, and insurers across India.

Are there any risks to MRI Scan Defecography?

A standard X-ray uses a very low dose of radiation considered safe for diagnostic use; ultrasound uses sound waves and involves no radiation at all. If you are or might be pregnant, tell the centre in Shivajinagar or Kharadi, Pune beforehand so the safest approach can be chosen. There is no needle and no recovery time.

Did you know?

An MRI defecography typically takes about 20–45 minutes in total.

MRI Scan Defecography Test Preparation in Pune

Fasting and dietary instructions:

Most imaging scans need no fasting. Some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours of fasting or a full bladder, so follow the specific instruction shown when you book, or ask the centre.

Medication guidance:

Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.

What to bring:

Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.

Timing:

Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Kalyani Nagar or Wakad, Pune. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a MRI Scan Defecography Test in Pune ?

When does a doctor order MRI Scan Defecography?

MRI Scan Defecography is used in pelvic floor assessment panels when doctors suspect defecation problems. It is ordered for symptoms such as chronic constipation, straining, feeling of incomplete emptying, pelvic bulge, or fecal incontinence.

Who should get MRI Scan Defecography done in Pune?

Pune's rapidly growing population, its large IT and student communities in Hinjewadi, Baner, and Kharadi, rising lifestyle-disease rates, and seasonal monsoon infection peaks make regular preventive diagnostic testing worthwhile for residents across the city. Those who benefit most from MRI Scan Defecography include patients needing structural assessment that bloodwork cannot provide, and anyone under surveillance for a previously detected abnormality in Pune.

What can MRI Scan Defecography help detect?

The test helps diagnose rectocele, intussusception, prolapse, and muscle coordination problems. Abnormal results can come from childbirth injuries, prior pelvic surgery, chronic straining, obesity, or connective tissue weakness. A family history of pelvic organ prolapse or connective tissue disorders may make this test more important.

What do MRI Scan Defecography results mean?

An imaging report describes what the scan shows and whether it is normal or reveals a specific finding. A qualified radiologist interprets the images, and your doctor explains what any finding means for you and whether a further test or treatment is needed. The FAQs below cover what this scan can and cannot show.

How often should MRI Scan Defecography be repeated?

For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.

What happens after MRI Scan Defecography results are ready?

Once your results appear in your GetVisit profile, discuss them with your doctor or a GetVisit-verified specialist. Your doctor will interpret each value in the context of your full health history, current medications, and symptoms, and advise on the next step: lifestyle change, repeat testing, medication adjustment, or specialist referral. All GetVisit reports are stored permanently and can be shared with any doctor instantly.

What is an MRI defecography?plus

MRI defecography is a dynamic MRI test that images the pelvic floor and bowel during rest, squeezing and evacuation. It uses contrast gel in the rectum and sequences taken while the patient simulates or actually evacuates on an MRI‑compatible commode. The study assesses anorectal anatomy and function, rectocele, enterocele, intussusception, pelvic organ prolapse, sphincter defects and pelvic floor descent, without ionising radiation.

How long is an MRI defecography?plus

An MRI defecography typically takes about 20–45 minutes in total. Preparation and positioning add time, while the dynamic imaging portion, capturing pelvic floor movement during evacuation, usually lasts around 10–20 minutes. Exact duration varies by facility, the number of sequences or views needed, and whether contrast is used. Allow extra time for arrival, consent, and changing clothes.

What position is a patient in MRI defecography?plus

In MRI defecography the patient lies supine (on their back) inside the scanner, usually with hips and knees flexed and feet supported on a brace or wedge to permit pelvic‑floor movement. Rectal (and sometimes vaginal) gel is inserted; the patient is asked to rest, squeeze, then strain and evacuate during dynamic image sequences. Some centers use open/upright MRI to mimic a seated position.

Who orders a defecography?plus

Defecography is usually ordered by a colorectal surgeon, gastroenterologist, pelvic‑floor specialist or urogynecologist; primary care physicians or physiotherapists may also refer patients. Radiologists perform the study. It’s requested to evaluate chronic constipation, obstructed defecation, fecal incontinence, suspected rectal prolapse or pelvic‑floor dysfunction, and when other tests haven’t explained persistent anorectal symptoms.

How should I prepare for MRI Scan Defecography?plus

Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners and remove jewellery before MRI Scan Defecography. Bring your referral, ID, and any earlier scans so the radiologist can compare.

Is MRI Scan Defecography safe if I am pregnant?plus

Tell the centre before MRI Scan Defecography if you are or might be pregnant. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; for X-ray or CT the team will decide the safest approach or suggest an alternative.
