Journal Article
Alyami, A., Hoad, C. L., Tench, C., Bannur, U., Clarke, C., Latief, K., …Moran, G. W. (2021). Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging in perianal crohn’s disease at 1.5 and 3.0 T: A feasibility study. Diagnostics, 11(11), Article 2135. https://doi.org/10.3390/diagnostics11112135

Perianal Crohn’s Disease (pCD) is a common manifestation of Crohn’s Disease. Absence of reliable disease measures makes disease monitoring unreliable. Qualitative MRI has been increasingly used for diagnosing and monitoring pCD and has shown potentia...
