Vatn MH et al. – MH has become a valuable marker of efficacy in IBD, predicting a favorable disease outcome. In the future, additional markers of healing are expected to be combined with today's endoscopic and histologic assessments.

| The increased interest in Mucosal healing in IBD, has been caused by the improved efficasy of biologic therapy. MH represents a valuable sign of efficasy and a prognostic marker. In this review, mucosal healing is also refered to as a general prognostic marker of disease outcome, regardless of choice of treatment.
