MRI for perianal fistula detection
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial uses MRI scans to look at perianal fistulas before surgery. The goal is to help doctors better understand the fistula and plan the best treatment.

This study follows people having surgery for an anal fistula to see how well they recover. It uses your feedback to measure results, and you'll have check-ins for a year.
This trial compares three surgical methods to treat a type of anal fistula (an infected tunnel between the bowel and skin near the anus). The goal is to find which technique works best and has the fastest recovery.
This trial tests a new treatment using radiofrequency energy (a type of heat) to destroy the abnormal tunnel of an anal fistula. It aims to offer a less invasive option for people with complex or hard-to-treat fistulas, including those related to Crohn's disease.
This trial uses a special MRI before treatment to better understand early rectal cancer or suspicious large polyps. It may help doctors choose care that avoids bigger surgery when possible.
This trial compares two surgical techniques to treat a complex type of anal fistula (an abnormal tunnel between the anal canal and skin). It aims to find which approach offers better healing and fewer risks.
This trial studies whether MRI can improve diagnosis and surgical planning for people with deep endometriosis before they have laparoscopic surgery. It may help you if you have deep endometriosis and are already scheduled for an MRI and surgery.
