Biopsy specimens of jejunal mucosa from children with coeliac disease (CD) were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) before and after gluten-free diet. The results demonstrate that SEM is more sensitive than LM in documenting early morphological restoration of jejunal mucosa in patients treated with gluten-free diet.

Abstract
Biopsy specimens of jejunal mucosa from children with coeliac disease (CD) were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) before and after gluten-free diet. The results demonstrate that SEM is more sensitive than LM in documenting early morphological restoration of jejunal mucosa in patients treated with gluten-free diet.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
