Imaging coeliac disease

Coeliac disease is one of the most common chronic health disorders in western countries. It is also one of the most under-diagnosed. Up until ten years ago, medical schools taught that coeliac disease was relatively rare and only affected about 1 in 2,500 people. It was also thought to be a disease that primarily affected children and young people. Recent studies and advances in diagnosis show that at least 1 in 133 people have coeliac disease, but only 1 in 4,700 is ever diagnosed.peer-reviewe
