Anorectal motility test equipment being prepared by a surgical nurse. Anorectal physiology is the function of the sphincter, anus and rectum. In this test, a manometry probe is inserted into the anus and slowly withdrawn. A pressure transducer measures the force exert by the rectal and anal sphincter muscles. These are the muscles that relax and contract to control bowel movements. Photographed in the UK. | |
