Using ultrasound to teach AI about bowel disease
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound images of the intestines to help develop an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that may improve diagnosis and monitoring of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD, like Crohn's or ulcerative colitis). Healthy people and those having an intestinal ultrasound for any reason are welcome to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You can be healthy with no known bowel disease, or you may be having an intestinal ultrasound for Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, monitoring, or another medical reason.
- You must be able to understand and agree to let researchers use your de-identified (anonymized) data.
- You cannot be pregnant.
- You cannot have recently taken contrast agents (dyes used in some imaging tests).

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 compares different ultrasound-based scoring systems to see which is most accurate for assessing disease activity in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. If you have one of these conditions, participating could help improve how doctors measure disease severity without invasive tests.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to combine CT/MR scans and colonoscopy images to better diagnose and predict outcomes for people with inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal tuberculosis, or Behçet's disease. It aims to see if AI can help doctors make more accurate decisions.
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 uses a special microscope during a colonoscopy to take detailed pictures of your gut lining. An artificial intelligence (AI) program will learn from these pictures to help doctors better diagnose irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
This study tests whether a special ultrasound of the intestines can predict when Crohn's disease will flare up again in patients whose disease is currently well-controlled. If successful, doctors could catch flare-ups earlier and adjust treatment before symptoms worsen.
