Core Tip	Celiac disease is quite common, being present in approximately 1% of the population worldwide. Although it is common, few cases are actually diagnosed because of the lack or screening and diagnostic tools. In this review we discuss currently used quantitative techniques and suggest directions for improved techniques. By using quantitative methods, it is possible to improve outcomes because these methods are automated, unbiased, rapid, and can detect low-level disease that is not evident by visual inspection of endoscopy images. Therefore, it may be possibly to more rapidly diagnose the disease to prevent morbidity by using computerized methods.
