Figure 4. Relationship between anorectal location at rest and motion during evacuation (left panel) and squeeze (right panel).

Figure 4

When the anorectal junction was higher at rest (i.e., closer to pubococcygeal line), the pelvic floor motion vector was longer during evacuation. In contrast, during squeeze, the puborectalis motion vector was longer when the anorectal junction was lower (i.e., further from the pubococcygeal line) at rest.
