Endorectal ultrasound
Endorectal ultrasound (ERUS) is a procedure where a probe is inserted into the rectum and high frequency sound waves (ultrasound waves) are generated
A sonogram
Since ERUS is a minor invasive procedure, there is no aftercare
Normal results of endorectal ultrasound include a normal thickness of the rectal wall, absence of masses or lesions, and normal lymph nodes. The presence of any abnormalities such as tumors, polyps, or abnormal thickening of the rectal wall may indicate underlying issues that need further evaluation.
Abnormal results range from any number of congenital deformities in the lining of the rectum to serious rectal cancers
The patient must evacuate the bowels completely before the procedure is done. This usually is assisted though the use of several enemas
ERUS is used as a diagnostic procedure in rectal cancer to determine stage of the tumor and as a post-radiation, presurgical examination to assess extent of tumor shrinkage
