Representative multimodal ultrasound and endoscopic images in participants with Crohn's disease. Top row depicts findings in a 26-year-old male participant with Crohn's disease in remission. Bottom row illustrates findings in a 25-year-old male participant with severe active Crohn's disease. The terminal ileum was the most prominently thickened bowel segment in both participants. Paired images comparing imaging modalities are shown. (A, F) Grayscale US images of the longitudinal section; arrows in A indicate the intestinal wall. (B, G) Color Doppler flow images of the longitudinal section; the box outlines the region of interest. In these two images, blue represents venous flow, while red represents arterial flow. (C, H) Conventional CEUS images of the longitudinal section. (D, I) Vascular density maps derived from super-resolution CEUS of the longitudinal section; arrows in D indicate the intestinal wall, and the outline in I indicates the measurement area for quantitative analysis. (E, J) Corresponding endoscopic images in the participants.
