Imaging diagnosis of cryptogenic multifocal ulcerous stenosing enteritis
More data are needed to characterize the intestinal ultrasound (IUS) findings of cryptogenic multifocal ulcerating stenosing enteritis (CMUSE). IUS features of CMUSE manifested as thickened bowel wall, with more than half of the patients presenting with hypoechogenicity with vague stratification. Computed tomography enterography (CTE) features of CMUSE included bowel wall thickening with mural enhancement, multiple short circumferential strictures, and mild small intestine dilation. IUS and CTE were comparable in detecting lesions, bowel wall thickening, bowel strictures, and bowel wall vascularity.
