MRI comparison for Crohn's disease activity in the ileum
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of MRI scans to see how well they detect inflammation in the small intestine of people with Crohn's disease. It aims to find the best way to assess disease activity without invasive procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older with Crohn's disease.
- Your Crohn's disease involves the ileum (the last part of the small intestine) and may also involve the colon.
- Your doctor has decided it is time to check how active your disease is.
- You are willing to have two MRI scans in the same week.
- You do not have a stoma, total colectomy, or more than 1 meter of small intestine removed.

This study uses an intestinal ultrasound (a safe, painless scan) to check how well Crohn's disease is controlled. It may help doctors see inflammation without more invasive tests.
This trial uses AI to improve MRI scans for detecting intestinal fibrosis (scarring) in people with Crohn's disease who are scheduled for surgery. It aims to help doctors better identify and treat scarring.
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 trial tests if drinking water before an MRI scan works just as well as the usual bowel preparation for people with Crohn's disease. If you need an MRI to check on your Crohn's, this study might be an option for you.
This study checks whether adding an extra, cross-body “transmural” evaluation (looking at inflammation throughout the bowel) improves care for adults with Crohn’s who are starting or receiving biologic (biotherapy) treatment. It uses close follow-up with stool calprotectin (a marker of gut inflammation) to see if this approach helps control inflammation.
This study looks at how Crohn’s disease healing shows up on a special MRI (MRE) and tries to better define what “healed” means. It may help your care team track healing more accurately, especially inside the bowel.
