The SEMA-CD accurately and reproducibly correlates with the standard SES-CD. Central readers viewed SEMA-CD as easier than SES-CD. Use of SEMA-CD in practice should enable collecting mucosal improvement information in large populations of patients. This will improve the quality of research that can be conducted in clinical registries. External validation is needed.
