A Practical Guide to the Diagnosis and Management of Fecal Incontinence  William Rudolph, MD, Susan Galandiuk, MD, FACS  Mayo Clinic Proceedings  Volume 77, Issue 3, Pages 271-275 (March 2002) DOI: 10.4065/77.3.271 Copyright © 2002 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Endoanal ultrasound study with use of 10-MHz probe. Orientation shows vagina at the top of the figure and coccyx at the bottom of the figure. Note the complete disruption of the external anal sphincter anteriorly due to prior obstetrical injury (sphincter defect). The internal anal sphincter appears as a hyperechoic ring, whereas the external anal sphincter is a more heterogeneous hyperechoic area. The center black area represents the ultrasound transducer.
