A Comparative Evaluation of the Measurement Properties of Three Histological Indices of Mucosal Healing in Ulcerative Colitis: Geboes Score, Robarts Histopathology Index and Nancy Index

While all three indices demonstrated relatively acceptable measurement properties, the GS and RHI performed better than the NI.
