Magnetic Resonance Enterography (MRE) Magnetic Resonance Enterography (MRE) is a noninvasive imaging test that can evaluate gastrointestinal issues including Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Ultrasound imaging is particularly useful for detecting small effusions or pleural disease of long duration complicated by lung consolidation or pleural loculations. Diagnosis. The diagnosis of MPE is established by demonstrating malignant cells in the pleural fluid or in the pleura itself. All MPEs are exudative. Additional markers for MPE include glucose < 60 mg/dL, pH < 7.20, increased amylase, and the presence of a grossly bloody pleural fluid (RBC count greater than 100,000 per mm3).
