Computed tomographic colonography: clinical value
Abdominal Imaging, 2007Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) has the potential to reliably detect polyps in the colon. Its clinical value is accepted for several indications. The main target is screening asymptomatic people for colorectal cancer (CRC). As in large multi-centre trials controversial results were obtained, acceptance of this indication on a large scale is ...

Computed tomographic colonography for colorectal screening
Endoscopy, 2007Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a specialized computed tomographic examination that has been optimized for the detection of colorectal polyps. The technology has undergone major advances in recent years and there is emerging consensus that state-of-the-art CTC results in performance characteristics comparable to those of optical colonoscopy ...

Colon Imaging: Computed Tomographic Colonography
Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2005Computed tomographic colonography (CTC, virtual colonoscopy) is an attractive modality with which to image the colon. Many different techniques are available; moreover, during the last several years, advances in hardware and software have been remarkable.

Computed tomographic colonography.
Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica, 2005Computed tomographic colonography, also called virtual colonoscopy, is an evolving technology under evaluation as a new method of screening for colorectal cancer. However, its performance as a test has varied widely across studies, and the reasons for these discrepancies are poorly defined.

Computed Tomographic Colonography: Ready for Prime Time?
Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2010Computed tomographic (CT) colonography is a noninvasive method to evaluate the colon and has received considerable attention in the last decade as a colon-imaging tool. The technique has also been proposed as a potential primary colon cancer-screening method in the United States. The accuracy of the technique for the detection of large lesions seems to

Appendiceal diverticulosis incidentally detected by computed tomographic colonography
Digestive and Liver Disease, 2016A 63-year-old man with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, nd hyperlipidemia, who had been followed up regularly for 9 years, visited our hospital for positive findings on fecal mmunochemical screening test. Although he had no abdominal ymptoms, computed tomographic colonography (CTC) was perormed for colorectal cancer screening. Colorectal neoplasms were

[Computed tomographic colonography].
Duodecim; laaketieteellinen aikakauskirja, 2014Computed tomographic colonography, i.e. CT colonography has already widely replaced double-contrast colonography as a method of examination of the colon. A prerequisite of successful examination is a well-emptied and distended colon. CT colonography detects cancer with a sensitivity of 96%, which corresponds to the results of colonoscopy.
