Review Article: Extending the Frontiers of Intestinal Ultrasound Knowledge, Performance and Expansion

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 40-56, January 2026.
This umbrella review identifies sizable gaps in the evidence base for intestinal ultrasound (IUS) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly in standardised activity indices, responsiveness definitions, and applications in special populations. Addressing these gaps through robust, multicenter studies and consensus‐driven frameworks is essential ...
