Review of Computed Tomographic Colonography from a Surgeon’s Perspective
Abstract New research has addressed many of the early concerns of Computed Tomographic colonography (CTC) and these studies are now beginning to shape clinical practices. A review of the literature demonstrates that the sensitivity of CTC in screening for large polyps (≥ 1cm) or cancers in the large intestine is as high as that of conventional optical

Computed tomographic colonography in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer
AbstractBackgroundThis study aimed to determine the sensitivity of computed tomographic colonography (CTC) in diagnosing colorectal cancer and to explore the reasons why these cancers are missed on CTC.MethodsPatients who underwent CTC in the 56-month period from 1 January 2004 to 1 September 2008, and all cases of colorectal cancer recorded in the ...

ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Will An Additional Observer Enhance Adenoma Detection During Colonoscopy? [PDF]
Background: Due to varied level of experience, the detection rate of adenoma on colonoscopy is different. In presence of both fellows and attending the incidence rates of adenoma are shown to increase in a small study reported by Rogart et al [4].
