Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The test accuracy of (1) water-soluble contrast enema (WCSE) for the detection of colorectal anastomotic leaks. The reference standard will be consensus of Radiologist interpretation and surgical clinical assessment.

    As above

    Up to 36 months

  • The test accuracy of (2) MRI-Enema for detection of colorectal anastomotic leaks. The reference standard will be consensus of Radiologist interpretation and surgical clinical assessment.

    As above

    Up to 36 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • (1) The comparative sensitivity for reported outcome variables relevant to investigation of pelvic intestinal anastomotic integrity. Including but not limited to: collection, fistula, fibrosis, lymphadenopathy, stenosis.

    Up to 36 months

  • (2) Patient experience of WSCE vs MRI-Enema particularly relating to anxiety, comfort and embarrassment assessed on a non-validated five point questionnaire entitled 'MRI-Enema Study Patient Questionnaire v1.1'.

    Up to 36 months
