Validation of Scoring Systems for Differentiating Intestinal Tuberculosis from Crohn's Disease
Differentiating CD from intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) is difficult due to the low sensitivities of currently available diagnostic tests. The Asia-Pacific guideline recommends anti-tuberculous therapy (ATT) for 8-12 weeks in patients with diagnostic uncertainty due to the risk of disseminated tuberculosis if patients with ITB are misdiagnosed with CD, and are …
Skeletal Health and Bone Marrow Composition in Adolescents With Cystic Fibrosis
The investigators will be evaluating bone marrow composition via magnetic resonance imaging in adolescents diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) compared to healthy, matched controls. The investigators will also be assessing their bone mineral density via other imaging modalities, including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT). This …
