Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction(CIPO) is a severe digestive motility disorder. However, conventional modality such as abdominal CT or plain radiograph cannot show the dysmotility directly. We succeeded in visualizing the dysmotility more clearly and directly by using cine-MRI thanks to its high temporal/spatial resolution. Cine-MRI have a potential to be an effective novel diagnostic method for CIPO.In addition, we performed a histopathological analysis of surgical specimens, and tried to elucidate the pathophysiology of this disease.
