Although underutilized, what is emerging as one of the best ways of evaluating inflammation in the body, particularly in difficult to observe regions, is through the use of Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). FDG is taken up in the body much like glucose and is particularly taken up in areas of inflammation where there is increased metabolism. Therefore, this technology can be used to assess inflammation, and measure the reduction in inflammation as the result of integrative interventions that target dietary modifications designed to reduce inflammation. With this proposed study, we plan to use FDG PET-MRI technology to develop a more specific and sensitive approach for evaluating areas of inflammation associated with IBS and measuring improvements in that inflammation in response to effective integrative interventions.
