During the past decade, the medical and surgical treatment of
ulcerative colitis has undergone dramatic advances, including the
widespread use of immunomodulators, biological drugs, and
restorative proctocolectomy. In order to correctly balance the
risks and benefits of medical therapies and surgical procedures,
there is a need for improved diagnosis of colonic disease, acute
complications, extraintestinal manifestations, and early and
delayed postoperative complications. Cross-sectional imaging
techniques are therefore playing an increasing role in the
assessment of ulcerative colitis and provide an essential
complement to clinical data and endoscopy. This practical,
illustrated volume on the role of cross-sectional imaging is aimed
at radiologists, gastroenterologists, and surgeons who are engaged
or interested in the diagnosis and care of patients with
inflammatory bowel disease, particularly ulcerative colitis. After
an overview of diagnostic imaging techniques, state-of-the-art
assessment of colorectal inflammatory disease with CT colonography
using water enema is discussed, followed by description of the
plain radiographic and CT findings in patients with acute
exacerbations and surgical complications. Subsequent chapters
review the diagnostic findings and role of cross-sectional imaging
in the assessment of sclerosing cholangitis (with emphasis on MR
cholangiopancreatography), vascular complications (particularly
portal and mesenteric thrombosis), associated neoplasms, such as
colorectal cancer and abdominal desmoids, and perianal inflammatory
disease. Normal postoperative appearances and early and delayed
complications in patients treated with proctocolectomy and ileal
pouch-anal anastomosis are also comprehensively reviewed. "
