Comparing the Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Enterography and Computed Tomography Enterography in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: A Prospective Study
MRE and CTE demonstrated comparable diagnostic agreement in evaluating IBD features, with MRE offering superior tissue characterization and radiation-free imaging, while CTE provided faster acquisition and higher spatial resolution. Despite moderate agreement levels, both modalities remain complementary in clinical practice. MRE should be preferred for longitudinal follow-up, particularly in younger patients, given its safety profile and diagnostic comprehensiveness.
