Abstract

Abstract The objective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease is to achieve early control of the disease with the intention of obtaining mucosal and even transmural healing. To do this, it is necessary to have monitoring techniques that allow us to closely monitor the evolution of the disease. Intestinal ultrasound is a good alternative to more invasive imaging techniques, with similar precision. It is quickly and easily available, provides real-time response and allows early clinical decision-making, being able to modify the therapeutic and monitoring strategy of patients. The incorporation of ultrasound in IBD units allows us to save time and resources for the benefit of the patient themselves.
