Transabdominal Intestinal Ultrasound for the Assessment of Ileal Disease Activity in Crohn's Disease.

Background and study aims Transabdominal intestinal ultrasonography (IUS) is increasingly used to assess transmural inflammatory activity in Crohn's disease (CD). This study evaluated the diagnostic performance of IUS for detecting ileal inflammatory activity in CD by comparing individual ultrasonographic parameters an...

Intestinal ultrasound assessment of Crohn’s disease activity and complications: correlation with clinical, biochemical, and cross-sectional imaging findings

Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disorder with variable clinical presentation and disease course. Accurate, non-invasive assessment of disease activity is crucial for guiding management and follow-up. Intestinal ultrasound (IUS), particularly the International Bowel Ultrasound Segmental Activity Sco...

Correlation between endoscopic disease activity and cross-sectional imaging scores at diagnosis in pediatric Crohn's disease.

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate correlations between transmural inflammation assessed by cross-sectional imaging and endoscopic activity in pediatric Crohn's disease (CD) at diagnosis. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data of patients with CD referred to our Pediatric Gastroenterology Unit who underwent il...

Intestinal ultrasound versus magnetic resonance enterography for detecting small bowel Crohn's disease in children.

OBJECTIVES In Crohn's disease (CD), magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) is used to assess small bowel disease activity. Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is a less invasive, cheaper and more easily accessible imaging modality in CD. This study assesses the diagnostic accuracy of IUS versus MRE and defines an optimal bowel...

Intestinal Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Assessment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Infectious enterocolitis: A Case-Based Narrative Review

This case-based narrative review describes how IUS can support diagnostic assessment in patients with suspected IBD activity or infectious enterocolitis, and highlights characteristic pattern-based IUS findings across common causes of infectious enterocolitis and intestinal tuberculosis.
