Advances in fibrostenotic Crohn’s Disease - what information is hidden up-stream of the stricture out of reach of the endoscope ?
A recent prospective study involving 28 Crohn’s Disease (CD) patients explored the potential of cine-MRI to non-invasively characterise stricture subtypes:

This suggests that quantified pre-stricture motility measured via cine-MRI could serve as a non-invasive imaging biomarker to help distinguish stricture subtypes. This could be valuable in fibrostenotic Crohn’s, where differentiating between fibrosis & inflammation is often invasive & ambiguous.
