| Summary: | Inflammatory bowel diseases are chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract with a growing prevalence worldwide, requiring precise diagnostic and monitoring methods to guide their appropriate treatment. In this context, MRE (Magnetic Resonance Enterography) has become an essential imaging technique as a non-invasive option for the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis in recent years. This method provides detailed information about intestinal inflammation, disease activity, complications, and response to therapy, without the need to expose the patient to ionizing radiation. This study analyzes the advantages of MRE over other imaging methods, as well as its clinical applicability and current challenges. We also discuss future perspectives, including the integration of artificial intelligence and the optimization of protocols for better diagnostic accuracy. |
