Virtual colonoscopy: a new promising technique

Original language description

Background. Virtual colonoscopy using the abdominal spiral computed tomography scanning allows a total colonic evaluation with minimal invasiveness.Methods: We studied 48 patients with a virtual colonoscopy using oral iodinated contrast. Results: Our indications for CT virtual colonoscopy were following: firstly, when colonic examination by other methods (colonoscopy, barium enema) failed or was not possible, and secondly, to exclude tumour duplicity in cases with an already verified colon tumour. 26 patients underwent a virtual colonoscopy examination based on the first indication, and 22 patients based on the second indication.Conclusion: In summary, our results show that virtual colonoscopy is a promising method in detecting individuals with significant colorectal lesions.
