Abstract
Despite decades of research on necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), the outlook for infants afflicted by this devastating disease is all too often bleak. The aim of this symposium at the BAPS conference in Amsterdam was to highlight recent advances in the knowledge of the epidemiology and diagnosis of NEC. There were important contributions on the disease in the United Kingdom, both from a neonatal and a surgical point of view, whereas colleagues from the Netherlands and elsewhere in Europe shared their insights into novel diagnostic tools, both biofluid and imaging based. Level of Evidence: Level V
