Abstract

Virtual CT colonoscopy is an accurate, highly informative, and less invasive method of examining the colon. The predominant and additional positive ability of virtual CT colonoscopy is the ability to detect non-intestinal pathologies. Based on the high sensitivity and specificity of the method to the developmental abnormalities of the colon, diverticula, polyps, cancer and other volumetric formations, we can conclude that virtual CT colonoscopy is one of the main methods of diagnosis and screening for diseases of the colon.
