Technological advances in inflammatory bowel disease endoscopy and histology.

Accurate disease characterization is the pillar of modern treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and endoscopy is the mainstay of disease assessment and colorectal cancer surveillance. Recent technological progress has enhanced and expanded the use of endoscopy in IBD. In particular, numerous artificial intelligence (AI)-powered systems have shown to support human endoscopists' evaluations, improving accuracy and consistency while saving time. Moreover, advanced optical technologies such as endocytoscopy (EC), allowing high magnification
