Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Anorectal physiology is primarily the study of anal sphincter and pelvic floor muscle function. Coincident with a developing interest in pelvic floor disorders has evolved a need for greater understanding of the normal physiological mechanisms, particularly in regard to faecal incontinence, and for increasingly sophisticated techniques whereby such function may be studied. |
