Abstract
Computing in gastroenterology has wide-ranging and interesting applications for pathology as well as being a way of record-keeping and developing clinical algorithms. Computerised image analysis allows for the first time a mathematical approach to defining when a patient has a histologically significant degree of duodenitis or colitis, allowing for the variable numbers of inflammatory cells and range of architecture of normal mucosae.
