Level of Fecal Calprotectin Correlates With Endoscopic and Histologic Inflammation and Identifies Patients With Mucosal Healing in Ulcerative Colitis

Level of FC identifies patients with UC who have endoscopic and histologic features of mucosal healing and correlates with endoscopic and histologic inflammatory activity. The UCEIS seems to be as accurate as the MES in identifying patients with mucosal healing and as easy to use. The histologic activity index had a high concordance with recognized endoscopic score systems.
