Computed tomographic colonography: Hope or hype?
World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2010 Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a promising emerging technology for imaging of the colon. This concise review discusses the currently available data on CTC technique, test characteristics, acceptance, safety, cost-effectiveness, follow-up strategy, and extracolonic findings.

Colorectal Laterally Spreading Tumors by Computed Tomographic Colonography
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 To date, few reports focused primarily on detecting colorectal laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) have been published. The aim of this study was to determine the visibility of LSTs on computed tomographic colonography (CTC) compared with that on colonoscopy as a standard.
