CT colonography: over two decades from discovery to practice
Abdom Radiol (NY).
2018 Mar.
Abstract
Since the introduction of CT colonography (CTC) in the mid-1990s, there have been continuous advancements in the examination technique and advanced visualization software for interpretation. This review will cover the origins of CTC as a natural extension of abdominal CT imaging, and discuss the evolution of CTC through the subsequent clinical phases of feasibility, validation, and implementation.
Keywords: CT colonography; Colorectal cancer; Screening; Virtual colonoscopy.
