Can a colonoscopy detect Crohn’s disease?

Crohn’s disease can be detected by enteroscopy, which is a common examination method for Crohn’s disease, while pathology is the gold standard for diagnosing Crohn’s disease. 1. Crohn’s disease is a chronic non-specific inflammatory disease, so far the etiology of Crohn’s disease is not completely clear, the digestive tract can be onset, but the main site of development for the end of the ileum and the adjacent colon, the main symptoms are abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss and so on. 2. Enteroscopy is the best examination method to detect Crohn’s disease. The lesions under enteroscopy are mostly ulcerated, presenting segmental or jumping distribution, and the lesions can lead to thickening of the intestinal wall and narrowing of the intestinal lumen. When the examining physician finds this microscopic manifestation, he or she can clip the tissue of the lesion under the microscope and send it to the pathologist for examination, so as to make a clear diagnosis. If you have any suspicious symptoms or discomfort, you should consult a doctor in time and take standardized treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor to avoid delaying your condition.
