Abstract:
Imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and management of children and young adults with inflammatory bowel disease. The clinician is presented with numerous imaging options, and it can be challenging to decide which test is the best option. In this article we review the present imaging techniques available in the evaluation of inflammatory bowel disease, with emphasis on the advantages, disadvantages, and radiation burden of each test. Finally, we highlight a few common clinical scenarios and propose an imaging algorithm to approach these diagnostic challenges.
