Ultrasound scores for inflammatory bowel disease severity
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study compares different ultrasound-based scoring methods to see which best measures how active your Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis is. The goal is to find a non-invasive way to track disease severity without repeated colonoscopies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis (confirmed by colonoscopy or biopsy).
- You have not had surgery to remove your colon or rectum.

This study tests if a standard ultrasound is as good as a high-end one at seeing inflammation in the gut. It could help people with IBD avoid more invasive procedures.
This study tests non-invasive tools to find active inflammation in people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. You may need to give extra stool samples before your colonoscopy and calprotectin test.
This study compares how well a non-invasive intestinal ultrasound works versus a standard colonoscopy to check for active ulcerative colitis. If you are an adult with active UC symptoms like bleeding or frequent stools, this trial may help you learn about a potentially easier way to monitor your disease activity.
This study uses intestinal ultrasound to measure Crohn's disease damage over time. It aims to see if ultrasound can replace more invasive tests like MRI or colonoscopy.
This study tests whether using ultrasound to guide treatment can help manage inflammatory bowel disease. You may join if you are having an endoscopy to assess your disease.
This study looks at whether certain blood markers can help measure disease activity in people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. It involves reviewing medical records and may include a colonoscopy if you have one done as part of your routine care.
