Brief Summary
Healthcare contributes approximately 4.4% of global GHG emissions, with diagnostic imaging and endoscopic services being substantial contributors. Colonoscopy and cross-sectional imaging modalities, though indispensable, are associated with high carbon emissions due to electricity use, waste, sterilisation, and transportation. IBUS, a non-invasive, real-time diagnostic modality, is increasingly validated for disease activity assessment in both UC and CD.
Eligibility Criteria
All consecutive patients undergoing endoscopy procedures with consent for procedures, during the study period will be included
