Evaluation of histological scores.
Inflammatory Cell Infiltration | Tissue Damage | ||
---|---|---|---|
No infiltration | 0 | No mucosal damage | 0 |
Increased number of inflammatory cells in the lamina propria | 1 | Discrete epithelial lesions | 1 |
Inflammatory cells extending into the submucosa | 2 | Erosions or focal ulcerations | 2 |
Transmural inflammatory cell infiltration | 3 | Severe mucosal damage with extensive ulceration extending into the bowel wall | 3 |
