Recent developments in CT colonography

Abstract

CT colonography allows reliable, non-invasive, rapid, high resolution imaging of the whole large bowel. Recent advances in technology such as computer-aided detection (CAD), scanning with or without bowel preparation, and low radiation are continually developing to improve the efficacy of this technique. This review will update the reader as to ongoing developments while presenting current thinking from the gastroenterological perspective. © 2005 The Royal College of Radiologists.
