“…The dentate line demarcates a transition from a glandular mucosa to squamous epithelium, is located 2–3 cm proximal to the anal verge, and is not visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) . Functionally, the accepted boundaries of the anal canal span from the proximal aspect of the internal anal sphincter (IAS) to the anal verge, with a length of ~3–6 cm . The anal verge is a band of squamous epithelial tissue that extends from the intersphincteric groove onto the perianal skin .…”
