The GI Research Foundation produced this podcast with a sponsorship from Metro Infusion Center.
As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass — a condition known as sarcopenia. But for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), muscle loss can be more severe and may even impact treatment outcomes.
In this episode, we sit down with Tenzin Choden, MD, board-certified gastroenterologist and clinical researcher at UChicago Medicine, to explore the connection between sarcopenia and IBD. We discuss why muscle health matters in digestive disease and whether a promising, noninvasive technology — intestinal ultrasound, funded by the GI Research Foundation — could help clinicians better measure and monitor sarcopenia in patients.
Could this approach transform how we care for people living with IBD? Tune in to learn more.
