IBD. Not IBS: This test is used to distinguish inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) from functional bowel disease (ibs), and thus avoid need for invasive tests such as colonoscopy. Assessing efficacy of ibd treatments. Predicting relapses or flares of ibd. Offer an alternate diagnostic test for patients phobic of needles or endoscopy. From www.Wikipedia.Com. Please refer further to that article. Tack för frågan.
