villous (relief) pattern/villous architecture
Explanation:
Zottenrelief
Darmspiegelung
Zotten sind kleine Ausstülpungen überall an der Schleimhaut des Dünndarms. Die Schleimhaut ist eine feuchte Haut. Sie kleidet den Darm von innen aus. Die Form der Ausstülpungen an der Oberfläche der Dünndarm-Schleimhaut nennt man Zottenrelief.

(a, b, and c) Normal villous patterns. Visualization of normal duodenal mucosa at white light SE (a). Regular villi appear well represented, thick, with a finger-like appearance at NBI system and ME (b and c). (d, e, and f) Abnormal villous patterns. Partial villous atrophy view at SE (d); NBI-ME showing a low-density of villi which appear irregular, disoriented, and with an initial pattern of surface destruction (e and f). (g, h, and i) Absent villous patterns. Marked villous atrophy with NBI system and ME (g); the surface is flat (h, “foveolar-like,” with total villi absence and wide circles (i: black arrow).

The villous architecture is normal, typically
there is no crypt hyperplasia and IELs are ≥25/100
enterocytes.

villi relief intact or normal relief of villi


Explanation:
I think in this context "relief" relates to the relief-like appearance of the villi. As in this definition in the Oxford English dictionary: "A method of moulding, carving, or stamping in which the design stands out from the surface, to a greater (high relief) or lesser (low relief) extent."
And this definiton from Merriam-Webster: "projecting detail, ornament, or figures"
