Crohn disease of the small bowel: MR enteroclysis versus conventional enteroclysis.

摘要: Enteroclysis has been suggested as the technique of choice for evaluation Crohn disease small intestine. Adequate distention entire bowel with barium suspension allows radiologic demonstration mucosal abnormalities and provides functional information by defining distensibility or fixation loops. The principal disadvantage conventional enteroclysis is limited indirect on state wall extramural extension disease, its effectiveness may be hindered owing to overlapping Moreover, radiation dose administered patients, mostly at a young age, should considered. Magnetic resonance (MR) an emerging imaging was introduced overcome limitations MR cross-sectional combining advantages both into one technique. potential change how assessed because information, soft tissue contrast, direct multiplanar capabilities, lack ionizing radiation.
