We’re proud to be part of this leading scientific meeting dedicated to advancing care for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).&nbsp;</p><p>Whether you work in primary or secondary care, conduct research, or support patients’ wellbeing, we’d love to welcome you at booth #24 to explore how Diasorin’s diagnostic solutions help clinicians deliver timely, accurate, and patient-centered care.<br>&nbsp;</p><h6>&nbsp;INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE&nbsp;</h6><p>The IVDR-compliant <strong>LIAISON<sup>®</sup> Calprotectin</strong> assay now includes an indication for <strong>monitoring IBD</strong>. This update reflects real-world clinical needs:&nbsp;</p><ul><li><strong>Beyond differential diagnosis</strong>: Fecal calprotectin (FC) is not only a valuable tool for distinguishing active intestinal inflammation from functional disorders such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) but also plays a critical role in monitoring disease activity in patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC).</li><li><strong>Early detection</strong>: FC can detect intestinal inflammation before clinical symptoms appear, reducing reliance on invasive endoscopy during routine IBD follow-up.</li><li><strong>Therapy optimization</strong>: FC supports treatment adjustments for long-term disease control.</li><li><strong>Relapse prediction</strong>: FC levels are highly predictive of relapse risk after therapeutic de-escalation.&nbsp;</li></ul><p>These benefits are strongly supported by international clinical guidelines and consensus statements:&nbsp;</p><ul><li><strong>ECCO-ESGAR-ESP-IBUS guideline</strong> recommends FC testing every 3–6 months alongside systemic markers such as CRP for disease monitoring<sup>1</sup>. &nbsp;</li><li><strong>NICE guideline</strong> highlights FC testing for post-diagnosis monitoring to help prioritize colonoscopies and optimize care pathways<sup>2</sup>. &nbsp;</li><li><strong>MSAC and GESA guidelines</strong> recognize FC as a valuable tool for tracking disease activity in IBD care<sup>3</sup>. &nbsp;</li><li><strong>STRIDE-II consensus</strong> confirms FC’s role in treat-to-target strategies, particularly in UC<sup>4</sup>. &nbsp;</li><li>Evidence from the <strong>EuReCa study</strong> shows that regular FC testing predicts relapses in quiescent UC, enabling proactive, patient-centered management<sup>5</sup>.&nbsp;</li></ul><h6>COMPREHENSIVE GASTROINTESTINAL DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS&nbsp;</h6><p>Diasorin supports every step of the GI diagnostic pathway, from differential diagnosis and infection detection to disease monitoring and pre-therapy screening. Our portfolio includes solutions for:&nbsp;</p><ul><li><strong>IBD vs IBS</strong>: Calprotectin</li><li><strong>Monitoring IBD</strong>: Calprotectin</li><li><strong>Pre-therapy screening in IBD</strong>: <em>M. tuberculosis</em>, CMV, HBV, HCV</li><li><strong>Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency</strong>: Elastase-1</li><li><strong>Bacterial &amp; Viral Infections</strong>: <em>C. difficile</em> GDH, <em>C. difficile </em>Toxins A&amp;B, <em>H. pylori </em>Ag, Campylobacter Ag, Adenovirus, and Rotavirus</li><li><strong>Celiac Disease</strong>: tTG IgA</li><li><strong>Hepatitis Diagnostic</strong>: HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV, HEV&nbsp;</li></ul><h6>LIAISON<sup>®</sup> CALPROTECTIN - HIGHLIGHTED SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS &nbsp;</h6><ul><li>Campbell, J. <em>et al.</em> 2021.
