APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -If you have celiac disease and eat foods with gluten, your immune system responds by damaging the small intestine. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley.

Detailed explanation-2: -Coeliac disease is a gluten-dependent disorder, triggered by ingestion of gluten and causing small-bowel mucosal inflammation, villous atrophy and crypt hyperplasia in genetically predisposed individuals. Its association with other autoimmune diseases has been well established in many studies.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is celiac disease? Celiac disease is an inherited autoimmune disorder that causes a reaction in your body to the protein, gluten. Gluten in your digestive system triggers your immune system to produce antibodies against it. These antibodies damage the lining of your small intestine (the mucosa).

Detailed explanation-4: -Celiac disease is associated with an inappropriate immune response to a segment of the gluten protein called gliadin . This inappropriate activation of the immune system causes inflammation that damages the body’s organs and tissues and leads to the signs and symptoms of celiac disease.
