The aim of the session is to illustrate the "state-of-the-art" imaging in Crohn's disease with emphasis on the small bowel manifestations. The last ECCO-ESGAR imaging guidelines will be reviewed, and the role of intestinal ultrasound and MR-enterography will be discussed. Future developments in imaging of IBD will be illustrated by considering the most interesting and challenging issues, such as the role of quantitative imaging, AI applications, and the imaging of fibrosis.
