Virtual hIStology of Crohn's Disease Ex-vivo Resected Anatomical Lesions
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Crohn's disease is a chronic, incurable inflammatory bowel disease with an unpredictable course, characterized by alternating remission and inflammatory flares. Current follow-up strategies are poorly suited to early flare detection, leading to uncontrolled disease progression and complications. A major clinical challenge is distinguishing reversible inflammatory activity from irreversible intestinal fibrosis, as existing imaging techniques lack specificity. This study aims to perform comprehensive ex vivo multiparametric MRI, combined with biophysical measurements and histopathology, on resected intestinal specimens to precisely map inflammation and fibrosis and to validate in vivo MRI-derived biomarkers for personalized therapeutic decision-making.
