The aim of this study was the prospective comparison of the diagnostic yield of transrectal sonography and double-contrast MR imaging for preoperative staging of rectal cancer. SUBJECTS AND METHODS. Thirty-nine rectal cancer patients (20 men, 19 women) underwent transrectal sonography performed with a 10-MHz endoanal probe and MR imaging (1.0 T or 1.5 T) using a whole-body coil. After rectal application of a superparamagnetic iron oxide MR contrast agent, T1- and T2-weighted images and gadolinium-enhanced double-contrast images were obtained. The results of examinations were compared with the histology of resected specimens.
