MR enterography imaging of Crohn’s disease in pediatric patients
BACKGROUND Crohn disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory process of gastrointestinal tract, which frequently affects children. Recent advances in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique have made small bowel imaging possible, what is extremely useful in pediatrics. The purpose of this article is to describe the characteristic MR enterography findings and to present the advantages of this moda...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance enterography in pediatric celiac disease.
OBJECTIVE To assess if magnetic resonance enterography is capable of showing evidence/extent of disease in pediatric patients with biopsy-proven celiac disease by comparing with a control group, and to correlate the magnetic resonance enterography findings with anti-endomysial antibody level, which is an indicator of gluten-free dietary compliance. METHODS Thirty-one pediatric patients (mean ...

conclusion most cte findings correlated with cdai and crp in patients with active crohn’s disease. background the accurate evaluation of crohn’s disease activity is important for the treatment of the disease and for monitoring the response. computerized tomography (ct) enterography is a useful imaging modality that reflects enteric inflammation, as well as extramural complications. objectives t...
متن کاملThe Role of MR Enterography in Assessing Crohn's Disease Activity and Treatment Response
MR enterography (MRE) has become the primary imaging modality in the assessment of Crohn's disease (CD) in both children and adults at many institutions in the United States and worldwide, primarily due to its noninvasiveness, superior soft tissue contrast, and lack of ionizing radiation. MRE technique includes distention of the small bowel with oral contrast media with the acquisition of T2-we...
متن کاملMR Enterography of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Review of Imaging Techniques and Findings
Introduction Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) consists of ulcerative colitis (UC), Crohn disease (CD), and indeterminate colitis. While sharing many clinical features, ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease are considered separate entities with unique characteristics. Due to the chronic nature of these diseases, frequent and repeated imaging is often necessary for diagnosis and therapeutic planni...
