Core Tip |
This is the first single-blind prospective study conducted to compare the results of ultrasound and colonoscopy. Our goal is to present an objective comparison between intestinal ultrasound (IUS) and colonoscopy. All the patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis) were contacted by the same investigator (Dr. Hajar Cherkaoui) in a delay of 10 days of colonoscopies. The operator (Dr. Hakima Abid) did not know the results of colonoscopies while performing the IUS. This ensured objective, unbiased evaluation of IUS in the diagnosis and follow-up of inflammatory bowel disease patients. |
