The Role of Multi-Detector Computed Tomography in Assessment of Chron’s Disease Progression: A Cross-sectional Study
Background:There is a lack of information regarding the correlation between multi-detector computed tomography [MDCT] findings and clinical activity of Chron’s disease. The aim of the work: In this study, we aimed to investigate the correlation between MDCT and the degree of activity of Chron’s dis...

The aim of the work: In this study, we aimed to investigate the correlation between MDCT and the degree of activity of Chron’s disease [CD]. Patients and Methods: In this prospective study, a total of 50 patients with CD were recruited The disease activity was assessed using the Crohn's Disease Activity Index [CDAI]. For MDCT evaluation, we used 256 Multislice CT scanners [Toshiba Medical System, Tochigi-ken, Japan]. Results: Forty-five patients [90%] showed signs of activity, while the other five patients [10%] were in the remission state [showed no signs of activity]. The most common sign of activity was mucosal hyper enhancement [93.3%], followed by mucosal thickening [91%], mesenteric congestion [64.4%], and mesenteric lymphadenopathy [33.3%]. The association analysis showed that there was a statistically significant association between CDAI and signs of activity in MDCT [360 ±64.5 in patients with signs of activity vs. 206.9 ±145.6 in patients with no signs of activity; p <0.001]. In addition, there were statistically significant associations between CDAI and presence of complications and extra-intestinal involvement [p >0.05].
