Advancements in colorectal cancer detection: The role of immuno‐positron emission tomography, immuno‐single‐photon emission computed tomography, and machine learning applications

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 1, Page 63-90, December 2024.
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the world's second most prevalent cancer and third in mortality. Detection and diagnosis are crucial in research and clinical settings. While colonoscopy and computed tomographic colonography are widely used for identifying organic lesions, positron emission tomography (PET) and single‐photon emission computed ...

Adenocarcinoma of the Colon Disguised as Abdominal Wall Abscess: Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCase Reports in Surgery, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Introduction. Abdominal wall invasion by cancerous cells arising from the colon with an overlying secondary infection that presents as an abdominal wall abscess has been encountered previously, but such a symptom is rarely the first presentation of colon cancer. There are very few cases reported in the literature. Case Presentation. In this case report,

Computed tomographic colonography in subjects with positive faecal occult blood test refusing optical colonoscopy

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Refusal of colonoscopy is a drawback of colorectal cancer screening programmes based on faecal occult blood test. Computed-tomographic-colonography is generally more accepted than colonoscopy. Aim: To compare adherence to computed-tomographic-

Development of a risk scoring system for predicting advanced colorectal neoplasia within subcentimetric polyps: A population‐based study

open access: yesJournal of Digestive Diseases, Volume 25, Issue 7, Page 436-443, July 2024.
The present study devised a risk score for prediction of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN) based on seven elementary variables, namely, age, gender, inpatient colonoscopy, chronic disease count, anemia, and other nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
