Defining faecal calprotectin thresholds as a surrogate for endoscopic and histological disease activity in ulcerative colitis - a prospective analysis
<strong>Background</strong> Faecal calprotectin [FCal] levels are used as a surrogate marker for mucosal inflammation, but thresholds for defining endoscopic or histological disease activity in ulcerative colitis [UC] remain unclear. <br/><br/> <strong>Methods</stron...
