Simple Endoscopic Score of Crohn Disease and Magnetic Resonance Enterography in Children: Report From ImageKids Study

Objectives: We aimed to explore the ability of magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) to impute the simple endoscopic score of Crohn disease (SES-CD) in children with CD, in whom failure of ileal intubation is common and may impair SES-CD calculation in clinical studies. Methods: This is a substudy of the prospective ImageKids study in which children with CD underwent ileocolonoscopy (scored by SES-CD) and MRE (scored on a 100 mm visual analogue scale [VAS] and by MaRIA). Mucosal healing (MH) was defined as SES-CD
