| Popis: |
Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic immune mediated disorder that most commonly affects the small bowel and/or the large bowel. Treatment targets in CD include mucosal healing assessed via ileocolonoscopy and transmural healing assessed through cross-sectional imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance enterography (MRE). More recently, histological healing in CD has emerged as a treatment target, though it is made cumbersome given its reliance on frequent endoscopic examinations. With expert guidelines now recommending regular objective assessments as part of a treat-to-target approach, accurate non-invasive assessment will become increasingly critical. MRE has an established role in the assessment of small bowel CD, with growing data supportive of its ability in detecting disease activity at mucosal and histological levels. This could therefore potentially reduce the need for serial endoscopic assessment. Thus, this review will assess the capacity of individual MRE parameters and MRE indices for detecting mucosal and histological small bowel CD activity. Furthermore, challenging scenarios, such as CD activity detection in post-operative clinical scenarios and abnormal findings in the context of a normal ileocolonoscopy, will be explored. |
