Abstract: Method for determining information helping the diagnosis of patologic conditions of the anatomical region of the pelvic floor by MRI imaging, 
characterized by the following steps: 
acquiring a sequence of MRI images along one or more predetermined section planes or inside a predetermined three-dimensional area, which planes intersect and/or which three-dimensional area contains at least a part of the pelvic floor; 
said image sequence being acquired for a time interval coinciding with or comprising at least a part of the length of the physiological process evacuating natural solids and/or liquids carried out on the basis both of a natural stimulation and an induced stimulation or during a simulation of physiological processes evacuating solids or liquids by introducing foreign bodies or substances simulating natural products; 
generating a film of the cinematographic type by using as individual frames one or more images of the MRI sequence for example in the known cineRM mode; 
displaying the film on a screen for visually verifying the dynamic-morphologic behaviour of organs and particularly of the pelvic floor.
