Abstract Cross‐sectional imaging—ultrasonography, computed tomography enterography, and magnetic resonance enterography—is a routine and indispensable tool for patients with Crohn's disease (CD) that helps to detect or monitor disease characteristics before, during, and after CD treatment. New emerging radiological technologies may have further clinical applications in the management of CD. In this review article, we focus on the latest developments in cross‐sectional imaging in CD research, including its role in intra‐ and extra‐luminal lesion detection, intestinal inflammation and fibrosis grading, therapeutic response assessment and outcome prediction, postoperative recurrence detection and prediction, and the gut‐brain axis.
