Disease relevance of Colonography, Computed Tomographic

CONCLUSIONS: The per-patient sensitivity of CT virtual colonoscopy CAD in an asymptomatic screening population is comparable to that of optical colonoscopy for adenomas > or = 8 mm and is generalizable to new CT virtual colonoscopy data [1].
The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of IV Buscopan as a muscle relaxant in CT colonography in terms of colonic distension and polyp detection, and to determine its particular efficacy in patients with diverticular disease [2].

High impact information on Colonography, Computed Tomographic

AGA future trends report: CT colonography [3].
CT colonography was also performed on 10 control subjects who ingested polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution prior to imaging [4].
Spasmolysis at CT colonography: butyl scopolamine versus glucagon [5].
PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of hyoscine butylbromide and an inflatable rectal balloon catheter on luminal distention during computed tomographic (CT) colonography [6].
Forty-two patients received either a polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution preparation or a phospho-soda preparation the day prior to CT colonography [7].

Biological context of Colonography, Computed Tomographic

The AGA and future trends in Gastroenterology: CT colonography [8].

Associations of Colonography, Computed Tomographic with chemical compounds

Efficacy of IV Buscopan as a muscle relaxant in CT colonography [2].
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare colonic distention with and without glucagon hydrochloride during CT colonography [9].
We have applied our algorithm in two virtual navigation systems, flythrough over terrain and virtual colonoscopy, and reached interactive stereoscopic rendering rates of more than 10 frames per second on a 16-processor SGI Challenge [10].

Gene context of Colonography, Computed Tomographic

Using SPARC Station 20, virtual colonoscopy was generated [11].
Display modes for CT colonography. Part II. Blinded comparison of axial CT and virtual endoscopic and panoramic endoscopic volume-rendered studies [12].
Recently published results indicate a high sensitivity for CT colonography and for MR-based colonography (MRC), with detection rates of greater than 90% for colorectal lesions greater than 10 mm in size [13].
