I was surprised to see the map indicating tropical sprue was found in parts of southeast USA. Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome!
Here in Brazil, we don't have it, indeed.
Sir can CT scan detect tropical sprue . Sir in my town doctor said no small intestine biopsy is not available .
Good question. I am not a radiologist, but I think it would be hard to detect with CT.

Check this reference; radiology is not enough for diagnosis. radiopaedia.org/articles/sprue?lang=us
Any morphological difference between coeliac sprue and tropical sprue.
When should we suspect tropical sprue?
The morphology is similar. The difference is in distribution of disease and clinical history (demographics, geography and triggers)
