MRI Protocol for Pelvic Floor


MRI Protocol for Patients With Pelvic Floor Disorders

  • HASTE Sagittal Rest Determine resting organ positions
  • HASTE Sagittal Kegel(Assess Kegel ability)
  • True FISP Sagittal Evacuation(Evaluate pelvic organ prolapse, rectal evacuation)
  • HASTE Sagittal Valsalva(Evaluate pelvic organ prolapse)
  • HASTE Coronal Valsalva Evaluate pelvic organ prolapse
  • T2 TSE Axial             Rest   Evaluate pelvic support structures
  • T2 TSE     Coronal        Rest   Evaluate pelvic support structures

Technical notes "MRI Protocol for Pelvic Floor" 

True FISP evacuation sequence is performed before the single-shot fast spin-echo Valsalva sequence to ensure that rectal contrast material is not lost before dynamic imaging. The true FISP sequence is a continuous 60-second acquisition along the mid sagittal slice. Acquisition time per image = 1 second.
The patient is positioned on the MR table on a water-resistant pad,120 mL of ultrasound gel mixed with gadolinium is placed into the rectum.
