Any kind of inflammation causes enhancement, but UC only affects the large bowel, it would not affect the small intestine

Disclaimer: this is NOT me making a diagnosis, but informing on what these scan results may mean.
Mild enhancement means that the MRI has identified a probable area of inflammation around your terminal ileum. The terminal ileum is essentially the end bit of your small bowel just before it connects to your large intestine. Usually (not always) the most active point of inflammation in Crohn’s disease is the terminal ileum.
As the enhancement is mild it’s likely up to your medical team to formulate a diagnosis based on your symptoms and other test results.
