Simplified Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease
SES-CD
Sum four caller-assigned Daperno 2004 SES-CD integers (ulcers, ulcerated_surface, affected_surface, narrowings; each 0-3) in each of five ileocolonic segments (ileum, right_colon, transverse_colon, left_colon, rectum) and return the total (max 60). Does not return activity bands.

Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Sum four caller-assigned Daperno 2004 SES-CD integers (ulcers, ulcerated_surface, affected_surface, narrowings; each 0-3) in each of five ileocolonic segments (ileum, right_colon, transverse_colon, left_colon, rectum) and return the total (max 60). Does not return activity bands.
When to use
When an agent has already assigned Daperno 2004 SES-CD Table 1 integers for the four items in each of five segments and needs the published total, not a diagnosis, CDEIS, CDAI, or later remission cutoffs.
When not to use
- Not a medical device and not a Crohn's diagnosis or a treatment order.
- Each of the 20 params is a caller-assigned Daperno 2004 integer 0-3. magent does not perform endoscopy. Unexamined segments are 0 as assigned by the caller.
- Theoretical max is 60 (five segments × four items × 3). magent does not apply a 56 clamp.
- Daperno 2004 did not publish SES-CD remission or response cutoffs. magent returns score and max_score only and does not apply later activity bands.
- Not CDEIS and not the Best 1976 CDAI.
Formula
SES-CD = sum of ulcers, ulcerated_surface, affected_surface, and narrowings (each integer 0-3) in ileum, right_colon, transverse_colon, left_colon, and rectum; Daperno 2004 caller-assigned; max 60; unexamined segments 0 as assigned by the caller; no published activity bands

Bulk (POST)
POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.
- 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
- POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
- The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
- HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
- Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
- x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

- exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
- HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
- Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
