In vivo real-time imaging of human duodenal mucosal structures in celiac disease using endocytoscopy
EndoscopyDOI: 10.1055/s-0029-1243838 Celiac disease is a gluten-induced enteropathy whose diagnosis is based on histological evidence of villous atrophy. The diagnosis may be difficult if the orientation of histological sections is other than optimal. During upper gastrointestinal endoscopy we studied in vivo duodenal mucosa in patients with celiac disease using endocytoscopy, a novel diagnostic technique allowing in vivo real-time visualization of mucosa under × 450 magnification.[...]© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New YorkGet connected:Table of contents  |  Abstract  |  Full text (Source: Endoscopy)MedWorm Sponsor Message: Find a vast selection of gluten free food and GF cookbooks at the Sensible Celiac.
