The diagnosis of UC is best made with endoscopy and mucosal biopsy for
 histopathology. Laboratory studies are helpful to exclude other diagnoses and assess
 the patient's nutritional status, but serologic markers can assist in the diagnosis of
 inflammatory bowel disease. Radiographic imaging has an important role in the
 workup of patients with suspected inflammatory bowel disease and in the
 differentiation of UC from Crohn disease by demonstrating fistulae or the presence of
 small bowel disease seen only in Crohn disease.
