Defecography (also known as proctography, defecating/defecation proctography, evacuating/evacuation proctography or dynamic rectal examination) is a type of medical radiological imaging in which the mechanics of a patient's defecation are visualized in real time using a fluoroscope.[1] The anatomy and function of the anorectum and pelvic floor can be dynamically studied at various stages during defecation.[2]
