In Crohn's disease (CD) a small bowel study-in addition to colonoscopy-is considered necessary for diagnosis/staging. In this study we re-examined the role of capsule endoscopy (CE), colonoscopy, imaging tests [magnetic resonance enterography/computed tomographic enterography (MRE/CTE)], and inflammatory markers [fecal lactoferrin and C-reactive protein (FL/CRP)] in CD patients who had undergone intestinal resection and in those who never had surgery.

Abstract

In Crohn's disease (CD) a small bowel study-in addition to colonoscopy-is considered necessary for diagnosis/staging. In this study we re-examined the role of capsule endoscopy (CE), colonoscopy, imaging tests [magnetic resonance enterography/computed tomographic enterography (MRE/CTE)], and inflammatory markers [fecal lactoferrin and C-reactive protein (FL/CRP)] in CD patients who had undergone intestinal resection and in those who never had surgery.
