BACKGROUND:Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) is increasingly used in children due to growing concerns of radiation. OBJECTIVE:To determine the performance of MRE, imaging findings were compared to wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) and histology results in children with/or suspected inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). MATERIALS AND METHODS:Pathology and WCE reports were retrospectively reviewed in 23 patients who had MRE. RESULTS:The sensitivity of MRE was 75.0% while the sensitivity of WCE was 77.8%. CONCLUSION:MRE and WCE are complementary techniques in evaluation of the small bowel in IBD.
