title: Dynamic contrast-enhanced MR imaging of perianal fistulae.
abstract: We describe the normal magnetic resonance (MR) anatomy of the perianal region and relate this to the surgical anatomy of perianal fistulae. We illustrate the surgical classification of perianal fistulae and the range of complications of fistulous disease encountered in clinical practice.
