Abstract
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to explore the future role of MRI in assessing the global disease burden of Crohn disease and monitoring treatment response. CONCLUSION. MR enterography is increasingly used to evaluate disease activity in Crohn disease, and scoring methods have been validated. Current MRI protocols may be extended to allow the assessment of inflammation and fibrosis.Keywords
