Crohn s disease (CD) can cause progressive bowel damage, impaired quality of life, and permanent disability. Severity and presentation can vary widely from person to person, necessitating an individualized treatment approach. The use of more readily available imaging modalities such as intestinal ultrasound and magnetic resonance enterography can be added to standard monitoring practices to improve disease management. Additionally, targeting deeper remission at a histological level is an emerging treatment target for patients with CD. Clinicians in collaboration with a multidisciplinary care team must become knowledgeable on individualized care and novel imaging modalities to optimize treatment for patients with CD. In this CME Outfitters recorded symposium, expert faculty will guide learners on how to integrate knowledge of the heterogeneity of CD in severity and manifestation into patient assessment and treatment. Learners will be instructed on utilizing alternative diagnostic and evaluation tools beyond colonoscopy for evaluating symptoms in patients with CD. Faculty will model incorporation of histopathologic treatment targets as an objective measure of inflammation in CD to inform clinical decision-making.
