Trabalho Final do Mestrado Integrado em Medicina apresentado à Faculdade de MedicinaCrohn´s disease (CD) is a lifelong chronic inflammatory disease which affects mainly young adults. Recently, developments in ultrasound technology and the use of intravenous contrast agents have significantly increased the capacity to assess disease location, activity and complications, to distinguish between fibrotic and inflammatory segments, as well as to predict response to biological and immunosuppressive therapies. Recent inflammatory bowel disease´s international guidelines underline the value of more frequent disease assessments and imaging surveillance, which must be safe, readily available and accurate, in order to guide treatment adjustments.
