Helmsley USE-IT Project

The IBUS Scientific Committee is thrilled to announce success
in the application for 3 years of funding from the Helmsley Foundation,
for the project:
DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTESTINAL ULTRASOUND SCORE TO EVALUATE
INFLAMMATION AND TREATMENT RESPONSE IN CROHN’S DISEASE. USE-IT:
A PROSPECTIVE MULTICENTER STUDY

This project will occur in 4 parts over 3 years in close collaboration with Alimentiv Inc. (formerly Robarts) who bring methodologic and design expertise in addition to their immense experience with central reading (for endoscopy and MRI).

There will be 16 international sites included in this audacious project, across Europe, Canada/ USA and Australia. This is an unbelievable opportunity for IBUS and our collaborators, and we will be providing regular updates to our membership throughout the journey.

Part I: RAND/ consensus regarding IUS case acquisition (completed), in addition to activity parameters, response and healing (completed)

Part II: Reliability study – 4 expert centers (Norway, Germany, Italy and Denmark) (now recruiting)
Part III and IV: Validation, responsiveness and patient experience, including 16 centers.
