Ulcerative colitis: UCCIS - A reproducible tool to assess mucosal healing

摘要

In an attempt to better characterize mucosal healing in ulcerative colitis, various endoscopic scoring systems have been introduced. However, most have limited interobserver agreement. A recent study has validated the ulcerative colitis colonoscopic index of severity and found that this new scoring system provides reproducible results among gastroenterologists.
