Core Tip |
This manuscript describes, for the first time, the knowledge and attitudes of gastroenterologists and pathologists towards the use of histology in clinical practice. Given the increasing literature and use of histology in trials, there is a need to understand the current perceptions of using histology in the real-world. Using a novel Inflammatory Bowel Disease Knowledge score, we demonstrate that although histology is an accepted endpoint, knowledge is poor, particularly relating to histological scoring systems. As such, these results illustrate a pressing need and opportunity to improve knowledge around histology scores amongst gastroenterologists and pathologists and develop consensus agreements on a reporting approach. |
