NCT03955328

Brief Summary

The hypothesis of the study is that in ulcerative colitis repeated flares of inflammatory activity, as well as mechanisms involved in resolution of the inflammatory response, may contribute to accumulation of damage in the colon leading to functional disturbances and symptoms that affect patient's functioning. The primary objective is to determine whether ulcerative colitis induces permanent anatomical damage, by means of magnetic resonance imaging.
