Virtual colonoscopy (VC), also known as CT colonography, is a noninvasive imaging method for the examination of the colon. The technique is easy, less labour-intensive than barium enema and conventional colonoscopy and is inherently safer since no adverse event or procedure-related complications have ever been reported.

Computed axial colonography, usually called virtual colonoscopy, is a new diagnostic method potentially useful for investigating polyps and tumors of the colon and rectum. It uses spiral axial tomography data to build up images similar to those given by conventional colonoscopy, offering advantages in that it causes no adverse reactions, and is ...

Virtual colonoscopy is a fundamentally new imaging technique, in which volumetric CT or MRI data are processed to virtual endoscopic images of the colon. The main application is early detection of colorectal cancer. To date, no data of studies on screening for colorectal cancer are available.

Virtual Colonoscopy: An Overview
Oncology Research and Treatment, 2006Virtual colonoscopy is emerging as a technique for the detection of tumor lesions in the colon. Being a patient-friendly examination, virtual colonoscopy could play an important role in colorectal cancer screening. This article reviews the current state of the art of virtual colonoscopy with future developments and issues to be resolved.

Virtual colonoscopy (VC) is a non-invasive screening tool for colorectal polyps which employs volume visualization of a colon model reconstructed from a CT scan of the patient's abdomen. We present an immersive analytics system for VC which enhances and improves the traditional desktop VC through the use of VR technologies.

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1997
A new method for colon examination, virtual colonoscopy, has been created by combining spiral computed tomography and virtual reality computer technology. If virtual colonoscopy proves equal to or superior to traditional colonoscopy in sensitivity and specificity for cancer screening, it would yield significant clinical and public health benefits ...

Correlation Between Intraoperative Colonoscopy and Virtual Colonoscopy
Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2008f s v s w a s t p c 6 63-year-old woman with a history of colon polyps and ersistently heme-positive stools underwent a colonoscopy at nother institution. The colonoscope could not traverse the plenic flexure of the colon because of sigmoid tortuosity. The atient then had CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy), hich revealed a fold in the cecum (A).

SummaryVirtual colonoscopy (VC) is an emerging technique for colorectal polyp detection in a normal‐risk screening population, in patients who have undergone incomplete colonoscopy, or patients who cannot undergo optical colonoscopy. Improvements in technology since VC's description over a decade ago have improved sensitivity for polyp detection.

Physical priors in virtual colonoscopy
SPIE Proceedings, 2009Electronic colon cleansing (ECC) aims to remove the contrast agent from the CT abdominal images so that a virtual model of the colon can be constructed. Virtual colonoscopy requires either liquid or solid preparation of the colon before CT imaging. This paper has two parts to address ECC in both preparation methods.
