Core Tip Hydrogen peroxide-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (HP-MRI) provides a much higher diagnostic accuracy for complicated anorectal fistulas. This allows for a more accurate identification of hidden or branched fistula segments. More focused and conclusive surgical procedures are made possible by this improved imaging clarity, which lowers the risk of postoperative recurrence, readmissions to the hospital, and the requirement for further treatments. Additionally, HP-MRI offers financial benefits to patients and healthcare providers by reducing the incidence of problems and repeat treatments. Apart from reducing expenses, it improves the quality of life for patients, reducing suffering and promoting a more efficient and customized treatment plan, ultimately revolutionizing the care of anorectal fistulas.
