Sensitivity at segment-by-segment analysis of conventional and contrast enhanced bowel US in the detection of small bowel CD lesions documented at x ray/endoscopy
| Site of lesion ascertained at x ray/endoscopy | Conventional US Sensitivity (95% CI) | Contrast enhanced US Sensitivity (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|
| Jejunum (n = 5) | 80.0% (78.0–82.0) | 100% |
| Ileum (n = 98) | 92.0% (89.7–94.3) | 98.5% (96.2–100) |
| Proximal ileum (n = 16) | 93.7% (91.3–96.0) | 93.7% (91.3–96.0) |
| Distal ileum (n = 82) | 96.3% (93.9–98.7) | 98.7% (96.2–100) |
