This article illustrates the characteristic CT findings of bowel damage related to drug toxicity, conditioning regimen, infections, and By author graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Although some overlap exists in the CT appearances of the different causes of bowel wall inflammation, the findings are frequently Wolfgang Bethge unique enough to suggest a specific diagnosis. Awareness of the specific time of occurrence, intensity of clinical symptoms, preferred localization, and Claus D.
