Today on #WorldIBDDay , we acknowledge the rising prevalence of IBD and its impact on patients. #IntestinalUltrasound ( #IUS ) offers a non-invasive, effective way to monitor IBD. Excited for the upcoming #IBUSNordic workshop in Malmö ibus-group.org/event/workshop… #IBD InternationalBowelUS
For years, #ulcerativecolitis has been considered a mucosal disease. In this study by Policlinico di Milano Ospedale San Raffaele and Università degli Studi di Milano we demonstrate that transmural activity assessed by #bowelultrasound is more accurate than Mayo Endoscopic Score for predicting colectomy risk in UC.
The first #Intestinalultrasound Module 3 course to be offered at #DDW2024 thanks to Helmsley Charitable Trust! The field of IBD is advancing beautifully in particularly as we integrate InternationalBowelUS globally.
