Dipartimento di Diagnostica per Immagini ed Imaging Molecolare, Radioterapia e Radiologia Interventistica, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Tor Vergata (PTV), Viale Oxford 81, 00133, Rome, Italy.
Purpose: This study was undertaken to explore the capabilities of an open-configuration, low-field, tilting, magnetic resonance (MR) system for investigating pelvic floor disorders and to compare the results obtained with the patient in the semiorthostatic and supine positions.
Materials And Methods: Eighteen female patients with a diagnosis of pelvic floor disorder (physical examination and conventional defecography) underwent dynamic MR defecography (MRD) with a 0.25-T tilting MR system (G-scan, Esaote).
