Core Tip	This study firstly described the shear wave elastography technique to evaluate the degree of fibrosis of perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease (CD) patients. Compared with magnetic resonance imaging, this technique may be complementary to the evaluation of CD lesions, but it is still in the exploratory stage, and the relevant results can be used as a reference.
