#region descriptions compiled into .exe in .net?

Question

Are #region/#endregion directive "descriptions" compiled into the .EXE in .NET? I understand that comments are NOT, but I often chunk groups of code within a region and give it a useful description.

I want to make sure these descriptions are not visible in my compiled code. (I am not looking for obfuscation information. Thanks, though.)

No, they aren't. They are Preprocessor expressions, which won't end up in code.
