Originální abstrakt

The aim of this study was to determine whether there are differences in absolute blood flow between patients with Crohn's disease with inflammation or fibrosis using contrast-enhanced ultrasound. Eighteen patients with fibrotic disease and 19 patients with inflammation were examined. Video sequences of contrast data were analyzed using a pharmacokinetic model to extract the arterial input and tissue residue functions with a custom software, enabling calculation of the absolute values for mean transit time, blood volume and flow. Feasibility of the examination was 89%. The fibrosis group had lower blood volume (0.9 vs. 3.4 mL per 100 mL tissue; p = 0.001) and flow (22.6 vs. 45.3 mL/min per 100 mL tissue; p = 0.003) compared with the inflammation group. There was no significant difference in mean transit time (3.9 vs. 5.5 s). In conclusion, absolute perfusion measurement in the gastrointestinal wall using contrast-enhanced ultrasound is feasible. There seems to be reduced blood volume and blood flow in patients with fibrotic disease.
