Overview
Crohn's disease (CD), a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), is a chronic intestinal recurrent inflammatory disease involving the entire digestive tract. Most CD patients require surgery for complications, including stenosis, perforation, and severe intestinal bleeding. Predicting early-onset surgery risk is of great importance to assist launching of therapeutic strategies. We aim to establish a digital prognostic model and nomogram using radiomics, which will help clinical practice.
