    • Abstract:
      This paper is part of a clinical practice guideline update on the risk assessment, diagnostic imaging, and microbiological evaluation of complicated intra-abdominal infections in adults, children, and pregnant people, developed by the Infectious Diseases Society of America. In this paper, the panel provides recommendations for diagnostic imaging of suspected acute diverticulitis. The panel's recommendations are based on evidence derived from systematic literature reviews and adhere to a standardized methodology for rating the certainty of evidence and strength of recommendation according to the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) approach.
      Competing Interests: Potential conflicts of interest. Evaluation of relationships as potential conflicts of interest (COIs) is determined by a review process. The assessment of disclosed relationships for possible COIs is based on the relative weight of the financial relationship (ie, monetary amount) and the relevance of the relationship (ie, the degree to which an association might reasonably be interpreted by an independent observer as related to the topic or recommendation of consideration). A. W. C. receives honoraria from UpToDate, Inc. J. R. B. serves as past president of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases. M. S. E. receives royalties from UpToDate, Inc, as co-section editor of Pediatric Infectious Diseases. M. K. H. serves on the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA) Board of Directors. All other authors report no potential conflicts. All authors have submitted the ICMJE Form for Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest. Conflicts that the editors consider relevant to the content of the manuscript have been disclosed.
