What is a MRI Scan Defecography Test in Mumbai ?

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 Bandra, Malad, and other parts of Mumbai.

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 Bandra or Malad, Mumbai 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 Bandra, Malad, and Mumbai 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?

Imaging is safe and non-invasive. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; X-ray and CT use carefully controlled low doses justified by the diagnostic benefit. Inform staff at the Bandra or Malad, Mumbai centre if you are pregnant or have implants or metal devices, so precautions can be taken.

Did you know?

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

MRI Scan Defecography Test Preparation in Mumbai

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 Malad or Thane, Mumbai. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a MRI Scan Defecography Test in Mumbai ?

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 Mumbai?

Mumbai's 21 million metropolitan population, annual monsoon flooding creating severe leptospirosis and dengue risk in Kurla, Andheri, and Ghatkopar, high corporate stress and commute burden, significant diabetes and cardiovascular disease prevalence, and a massive working population with irregular meal and sleep patterns make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential health investment for all residents. Imaging benefits patients with pain, swelling, a palpable lump, injury, or an abnormal earlier finding, as well as those monitoring a known condition. GetVisit helps residents of Kurla, Thane, and across Mumbai book accredited imaging with clear pricing.

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?

Findings are graded from normal to significant, and comparison with any previous scan shows whether a known finding is stable, improving, or progressing. Your doctor explains the report in the context of your symptoms. See the FAQs below for more detail on this scan.

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?

Your GetVisit digital report is delivered to your phone as soon as results are authorised. Share it directly with your doctor via the app, or book a consultation with a GetVisit-verified specialist on the same platform. Critical values outside a safe range are flagged by the laboratory for urgent clinical review.

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.

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.

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.

My office health camp flagged this and my doctor confirmed I should do it. Compared labs on GetVisit and picked the one closest to my building in Andheri. The technician was gentle , my elderly mother had no issues at all. Instructions were clear and the whole process was quite dignified. The result was reassuring and we could move forward with the treatment plan. Excellent service , especially helpful given how busy life gets in Mumbai.
