Ionizing radiation in Crohn's disease.
techniques. This is mainly due to the fact that the clinical indices used to monitor CD, which incorporate clinical data and biological parameters, as is for instance the case with the Crohn s Disease Activity Index (CDAI), may underestimate true disease activity particularly in patients with penetrating forms. Furthermore, clinical activity indices do not correlate with endoscopic findings or ...
متن کاملDoes ionizing radiation influence Alzheimer's disease risk?
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a human neurodegenerative disease, and its global prevalence is predicted to increase dramatically in the following decades. There is mounting evidence describing the effects of ionizing radiation (IR) on the brain, suggesting that exposure to IR might ultimately favor the development of AD. Therefore better understanding the possible connections between exposure to ...
متن کاملPinworm Infestation Mimicking Crohns' Disease
We here report a case of a young man who presented to his general practitioner with diarrhea. Inflammatory bowel disease was suspected and a colonoscopy showed aphthous lesions suggestive of Crohns' disease but biopsies revealed eggs of Enterobius vermicularis. When treated for this parasite, his symptoms were alleviated and a followup colonoscopy revealed a normal colon and distal ileum. Enter...

متن کاملIonizing Radiation
Introduction Radiation that has sufficient energy to remove electrons from atoms is called “ionizing radiation.” Ionization results in the production of negatively charged free electrons and positively charged ionized atoms. Ionizing radiation can be classified into two groups: photons (includes X-radiation and gamma radiation) and particles (includes alpha and beta particles and neutrons). The...
