Based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology under artificial intelligence algorithm, the postoperative nursing effects of pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation exercise on gastrointestinal tract rectal cancer (RC) patients were investigated. A total of 88 patients receiving RC anus-preserving surgery in hospital were selected. The included patients were divided randomly into the experimental group (44 cases) and the control group (44 cases). Patients in the control group engaged in Kegel motion, while patients in the experimental group underwent self-designed comprehensive pelvic floor training. Anorectum function rating scale and quality of life questionnaire for colorectal cancer (EORTC QLQ-CR29) were utilized to compare and analyze anus functions and living quality of patients in the two groups. Besides, all patients in two groups received MRI examinations, and images were processed by a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm. The results showed that in MRI images, there were significant signal differences between lesion tissues and normal tissues. After being processed by an artificial intelligence algorithm, the definition of MRI images was remarkably enhanced with clearer lesion edges. The quality of images was also significantly improved. Besides, the comparison of anus functions of patients in two groups showed that the differences demonstrated statistical meaning after the intervention (p < 0.05). In conclusion, artificial intelligence algorithm-based MRI and comprehensive pelvic floor muscle exercise showed significant application prospects and values in the recovery of patients' intestinal functions after RC anus-preserving surgery.
