Article Synopsis
- Inflammatory bowel diseases, particularly ulcerative colitis (UC), require careful monitoring for effective treatment, as traditional methods like colonoscopy have limitations in detecting complications and disease extent.
- A study involving 50 UC patients assessed the disease activity through clinical, endoscopic, and histopathological methods, comparing these results with findings from computed tomographic enterocolonography (CTE).
- The results indicated that CTE successfully identified bowel wall thickening and hyper enhancement in 74% of active UC cases, correlating strongly with histopathological findings, proving its effectiveness in evaluating disease activity.
