Abstract

Objective: To assess if magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) is capable of showing evidence/extent of disease in pediatric patients with biopsy-proven celiac disease (CD) by comparing with a control group, and to correlate the magnetic resonance enterography findings with anti-endomysial antibody (EMA) level, which is an indicator of gluten-free dietary compliance.
