Ultrasound examinations were performed in 36 patients with Crohn's disease, 28 with ulcerative colitis, and 50 with no bowel disease. The pathological findings were classified into three types and compared with the radiographic and/or colonoscopic findings. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis could be detected by ultrasonography with a sensitivity of 86% and 89%, respectively. The ultrasonographic features correlated with the radiographic/colonoscopic findings and with disease activity, but did not help much in making a differential diagnosis, although the location of the pathologic changes was helpful to some extent. In conclusion, ultrasonography can serve as a useful alternative diagnostic procedure that permits us to obtain information about transmural changes in inflammatory bowel disease.
对36例克罗恩病患者、28例溃疡性结肠炎患者和50例无肠道疾病患者进行了超声检查。将病理结果分为三种类型，并与放射学和/或结肠镜检查结果进行比较。超声检查对克罗恩病和溃疡性结肠炎的检测灵敏度分别为86%和89%。超声特征与放射学/结肠镜检查结果及疾病活动相关，但在鉴别诊断方面帮助不大，不过病理改变的位置在一定程度上有所帮助。总之，超声检查可作为一种有用的替代诊断方法，使我们能够获取有关炎症性肠病透壁改变的信息。
